Jewell Marie Hendricks Mother Pleads Guilty To Smothering Infant SonOGDEN, Utah — I promise you that I am not looking for these deadabused kid stories this morning, but I got one more.

While in court before a judge answering to murder charges, 27-year-old Jewell Hendricks admitted she smothered her infant son.

“Are you doing it because you are, in fact, guilty?” Second District Court Judge Michael DiRida asked Hendricks. ”Yes, your honor,” Hendricks said, sobbing.

Prosecutors say that Hendricks felt that the stress of being the new mother of premature twins could be substantially alleviated if she were short one kid.

She liked 2-month-old Robert the least, so in January 2010, she covered his crying face with a sleeping bag and bear-hugged him until he stopped, then reportedly sat on his body for several hours.

Robert would die from blunt force trauma to the head and smothering. Court documents stated Robert had a skull fracture, bruising on the head and arms, a broken collarbone and bleeding of the eye.

As part of Hendricks’ plea deal, prosecutors dropped child abuse charges and will only recommend she serve 15 years in prison.

She is scheduled to be sentenced Sept. 9 where her attorney plans on having a psychologist testify that Hendricks has the mental capacity of a 12-year-old.

Which means her husband must have the mental capacity of an 8-year-old as he was outside of the courtroom telling reporters that Robert’s death was an accident.

“I was there and I know how it happened,” Phil said. “It wasn’t her fault. It was nobody’s fault. Accidents do happen.”

The Hendricks’s surviving son was given up for adoption and hopefully finds his way into the arms of a woman who doesn’t want to love him and squeeze him ’til he don’t move no more.

    I’ll never understand how someone could do that to a little baby. Also what the fuck is up with a recommended sentence of 15 years. If you murder a baby you should never walk free again.

    I don’t get it. I have 3 kids and trust me they cry and drive me to drink half the time! But I have never in my wildest thoughts have thought of smothering them, microwaving them, driving them into a body of water, setting them on fire, running them over….etc! Hell my kids don’t get spankings and there are times they deserve them. When my kids are crying just to be annoying, I put them in their rooms and close the door or I go into another room….. Kids cry and yes it’s annoying sometimes… but you deal with it, not kill them. People should need a license to have kids. Get a psychological test, drug testing, genetic testing… IDK something, shit!

    I’m sure there are thousands of couples – in desperate want of a child – who gladly would have taken this infant from her and given him a loving home. 

    I really, truly, hate this fucking bitch.  Oh, and someone needs to tell her she looks like Terry Gilliam in a shitty green wig.  (Sorry for that, Terry.  You don’t deserve any association with this hag.)

    Why didn’t this swamp thing just put the baby up for adoption instead of this?

    I don’t understand these people, there was NOBODY that she could have given the baby to that would have raised him? Nobody? I can’t believe that.

    I know quite a few women who gave their children to others because they couldn’t take care of the child but didn’t want to terminate the pregnancy. Most eventually went back to live with the moms after they got it together and the others were eventually adopted by the person who raised them. Shoot, I was going to raise a young lady’s baby for her until she was ready but she miscarried. There had to have been someone.

    Ok, so if she has the mental capacity of a 12yr old then her husband must be Mentally retarded & blind because we all know girls are a drama, no matter what age & only someone as immature as the other person is would put up with that.

    If he isn’t & he SAW WHAT HAPPENED, he should be charged too oh & tell him he needs to pick out a glory hole before trying to put his dick into something like that. At least the glory hole won’t pick one of his little soldiers & prevent them from dripping on the face/chin/floor.

    “It wasn’t her fault. It was nobody’s fault.” And herein lies one of the problems with today’s society. It’s never anyone’s fault. Personal responsiblity has gone to shit. How in the hell do you “accidentally” wrap a kid in a sleeping bag, give them a bear hug and then sit on them for several hours? Saying the husband has the mental capacity of an 8-year-old is giving him too much credit.

    Nonetheless the kid died of blunt force injury…she probably beat his head in and realized she went too far, thus suffocating him.  No accident.

    It doesn’t take a brain to get pregnant.  It DOES take a brain to raise a child.  Obviously Carrot-top took a vote and came up short. 

    People should have to have a license to reproduce.  TRUTH.

    My nine year old daughter is hands down amazing. Ever since her little brother came home, she has been the biggest helper. She keeps her and her brothers bedroom clean at all times (I could never get her to do that before), she’s asked Grandma and Great-grandma to teach her how to cook and do laundry when she’s at their house, so she can do it at home. She feeds the baby during the day so mom can do other things like dishes or laundry (it’s too hard for Kiddo to fold mom and dad’s clothes, they’re too big), she calms the baby when he’s crying and fussy. She has true mother instincts in her.
    God forbid something ever happens to me, she’d be a better parent to my son than most of the dickweeds featured on this site. How is it a nine year old can take better care of a 7 week old than all these adults? I don’t understand. What the hell is broken in them or wasn’t installed at the factory?!

    I honestly was a bit taken back because she really looks like a man. I read the name about 12 times to make sure on the video. Then I saw her hubby.

    People who have mental issues should not be having children. And that is really sad. No one knows when one will snap.

    And what the fuck is with this 15 year old sentence? Someone needs to crush her skull and suffocate her just like she did to that baby…

    Is it just me or do people who murder ( and torture!) their own babies, they get less time than if they did that to an adult?! Why do our courts not see babies as the precious little innocents they are?? They should get MORE time for killing a child, NOT less!!

    Whenever I hear stories like this, that are bad enough, in and of themselves. But to add insult to injury you have her dumb ass man outside of the court room saying it was all an “accident” after she has said it was by far, NOT an accident. She admitted to “choosing” a child and killing the other. I say smother her flame out…because we are choosing to terminate her life card.

    Ugh, pick a twin to kill. Sick, sick woman, I wonder if she knew which one she murdered? How the hell will the surviving twin deal with it? So bizarre, so sad!

  • BrittneyEast

    Besides a normal, right thinking biological parental unit, the surviving twin is going to feel like he is missing something for the rest of his life.  I’m an identical twin, and hell………I can’t even imagine life without her.  I know this baby won’t be raised next to someone his whole life,  but the body remembers what the mind does not.  I still automatically reach out in my sleep expecting somewhere in my lizard brain, for her to be there.  Thankfully she is healthy, even if she lives far away.  That poor baby boy…both of them.  I hope the family he was adopted out to takes care of him!
