A mother in Frankfort, Illinois, has been charged with first-degree murder after her two-year-old son was found dead in the basement—believed by authorities to be due to asphyxia—and she was later discovered with self-inflicted knife wounds. Investigators say Walsh claimed her child was the devil and anti-Christ, while neighbors are urging community vigilance amid this devastating tragedy. The case echoes another high-profile mother’s trial, and Walsh’s attorney suggests psychosis may have played a role. Three other children were unharmed, and Walsh is in custody awaiting court.
