Rochester police have charged a mother with murder in connection with the death of her 10-day old son.
Officers were called to a home at 31 Locust Street Monday afternoon for a report of an unresponsive child. They were told the baby, Jeremiah Mitchell, was found in that condition in the bathtub.
25-year old Markiya Mitchell, the infant's mother, later admitted to intentionally drowning Jeremiah in the bathtub. She has a 7-year old child who is being cared for by a family member.
Mitchell is scheduled to be arraigned this morning on a charge of second degree murder. RPD says additional charges may be considered by a grand jury.
