FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — -- A woman accused of putting her newborn in a plastic bag and abandoning her in the Georgia woods nearly four years ago has been denied bond after prosecutors argued she could intimidate potential witnesses in the"Baby India" case.
Jiwani faces charges including criminal attempt to commit murder, cruelty to children in the first degree, aggravated assault and reckless abandonment. She faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted, prosecutors said. "By the defendant's own statement during the interview, this was a child that she tried to kill," Penn said."That was certainly her intent."
"This woman suffered from postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis," Abt told the court."There are extensive medical records to demonstrate that and ultimately expert testimony to prove that." When the judge asked Jiwani if she had any questions, her defense attorney advised her not to say anything.Jiwani, of Forsyth County, was arrested on Thursday following a nearly four-year investigation that saw the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office release body camera footage of the baby's recovery as they attempted to identify her.
