Metro Police are trying to figure out who gave birth to a baby boy and left the baby inside a bathroom at the Excalibur Casino Sunday night.

Janitors found the baby boy dead around 9:40pm inside a casino level ladies room.

Action News reporter Ben Deci has the few details police know about the incident.

Police report the lifeless body of what appeared to be a recently born male infant which had been wrapped in a hotel gift bag and a pillow case was found Sunday.

"It is extremely sad and tragic to think that somebody could actually give birth to a child and turn around, wrap it up in a pillow case and just throw it away," said Scott Allison.

*sigh* I want to make billboards....

"Don't throw away your baby! Give it to me!"

Then have all of us here at DD sign it.

Sometimes I wonder if there should be some kind of cash incentive to turn in a live baby. Not enough to make a girl want to go and get pregnant, but enough for her maybe not kill her baby. *sigh* I just don't know.

I don't understand. It's so easy to not get pregnant if you don't want children. Why can't people just put them up for adoption or leave them somewhere safe to be found? We are in the 21st century now and the stigma that used to be attached to unwed mothers is almost non existant now. People, let these babies live! Give them to someone who will love and care for them!

It wouldn't have to be cash. Depending on the targeted audience, the "reward" could vary. "Turn in your newborn, get a free iPod/bag of crack/semiautomatic handgun/box of chocolates"....

Sad but oh so right!
