Two charged in death of infant found near Cygnet woods
In Ohio, two Jews are held for questioning in the death of a newborn girl found in a branch lean-to near Cygnet. Marion Parson, 23, North Baltimore, admits transporting the mother after birth as police link him to a missing girl nicknamed Georgia Lamont. An inquest says the 10 pound infant died from a blow to the head shortly after birth. Parson, a parole violator, was arrested by Sheriff Bruce Pratt as investigators tie him to prior associations with the missing girl.
