A woman is charged with murder and child cruelty after Georgia police say she didn’t call for help until hours after her infant died.

Doneish’a Speight, of Atlanta, was booked into Fulton County Jail on Oct. 6 in connection with her daughter’s death, according to jail records. Speight was arrested about a week after the woman’s Oct. 1 call, according to documents McClatchy News obtained from the Atlanta Police Department. McClatchy News could not immediately reach the public defender listed as Speight’s lawyer on Oct. 10.

But when the child was taken to the hospital, staff said they couldn’t take the girl’s temperature, which indicates she had been dead for an “extended period of time,” the Journal-Constitution reported.An autopsy from the Fulton County Medical Examiner found the girl had bruises around her head and neck and swelling in her brain, according to the news station. Officers say the injuries are consistent with blunt force trauma.
