Considerations
A focal issue of
investigation is whether the infant was born alive. The neonaticidal mother in
denial often may repress or suppress her recollections of circumstances of the
birth or simply may deny that she remembers and be withholding information. Physical
evidence is often needed to prove that the infant was killed, despite the risk
of stillbirth being remarkably low barring some congenital anomaly.
