A mother has been charged with murder after the death of her 3-month-old child.

On March 17, emergency personnel responded to an address in Cambridge Subdivision of Spotsylvania County for an unresponsive 3-month old child.

The child was transported to a local hospital where she was later pronounced deceased.

The child’s mother, Stephanie Hadeed, 25, was the caretaker of the infant at the time of death.

The medical examiner determined that the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head and the manner of death was homicide.

Following the autopsy of the infant, the medical examiner indicated five separate diagnoses: Subdural hemorrhage of the cerebrum brainstem, and cerebellum, subarachnoid hemorrhage of the cerebrum, brainstem, cerebellum, and spinal cord, intraventricular hemorrhage, multifocal, Bilateral optic nerve hemorrhage and subgaleal contusions.

Temper on this harlot is off the hook.
So put her back on one.

May I suggest a meat hook to the back of the torso. Actually let's go for two, one hooking onto a rib each side of her spine and hang her from it.
Then turn her into a pinata.

A woman who has spent nearly seven months in jail since she was accused of killing her 3-month-old daughter last year received a personal recognizance bond in Spotsylvania County Circuit Court.

Stephanie Grace Hadeed, 26, is charged with second-degree murder, felony murder and child neglect in connection with the March 17 death of her daughter, Addeline Owens. The baby’s cause of death is listed as “blunt force trauma to the head.”

Hadeed was arrested in June and had been in custody ever since. She is expected to be released soon, but was still in the Rappahannock Regional Jail early Thursday evening.

A three-day jury trial for Hadeed is scheduled to begin May 19 in circuit court.

Defense attorney Robert May argued Thursday that Hadeed deserves a bond, in part because she is innocent. He also argued that she has no prior criminal record, poses no risk to the community, has strong ties to the area and has no history of substance abuse.

A large contingent showed up to support Hadeed’s release, including family and members of the University of Virginia’s Innocence Project.

A Spotsylvania County woman whose 3-month-old daughter died from severe head trauma in 2019 was ordered Wednesday to serve five years in prison.
Stephanie Grace Hadeed, 28, was convicted in Spotsylvania Circuit Court of involuntary manslaughter and felony child neglect. As part of a plea agreement, a second-degree murder charge was dropped.

Hadeed entered Alford pleas to the charges, meaning she doesn’t admit guilt, but did not want to risk going to trial. On Wednesday, she again denied doing anything to her daughter.
Judge Ricardo Rigual sentenced Hadeed to 15 years in prison with 10 years suspended. The sentence far exceeded the recommended state sentencing guidelines, which called for a maximum penalty of six months in prison.


Rigual’s decision led to emotional responses from several of Hadeed’s supporters, who wailed loudly inside and outside the courthouse. Bailiffs had to escort some out of the building. Hadeed had been free on bond prior to Monday and had already spent seven months in jail.
An autopsy revealed hemorrhages to the child that appeared to have stemmed from at least two distinct blows. Court records state that Hadeed offered several possible explanations for the damage, including being struck by someone opening a refrigerator door, having a cell phone dropped on her head and falling down stairs a week or so earlier.
But expert witness Dr. Robin Foster testified that the damage was far more extensive than any of those incidents could have caused.
