Mother Accused of Killing Son in Illinois | Orlando News
Description
A chilling case from Frankfort, Illinois, where a two-year-old boy was found dead with a ligature around his neck—his mother, Corie Walsh, now faces three first-degree murder charges. Prosecutors claim she believed her son was the “devil” and “anti-Christ,” and even attempted suicide before being hospitalized. Three other children in the home survived unharmed. The neighbor who discovered the boy performed CPR before police arrived, removing the ligature before emergency crews took over. Autopsy confirmed death by asphyxiation. Walsh was found in a bathtub with self-inflicted wounds and a knife nearby; she remains hospitalized as prosecutors push to deny her pretrial release. Investigators are also probing her phone and her recent fascination with another notorious mother-child murder case.
