DC mother charged with baby's murder released from jail
The D.C. mother arrested for murder and tampering with evidence following the disappearance of her two-month-old son was released from jail after a Saturday arraignment hearing.
Court information online shows 38-year-old Ladonia Boggs as being released
without bond to D.C.’s Pretrial Services Agency.
A Pretrial Services Agency (PSA) spokesperson for the District of Columbia told FOX 5 on Sunday that Boggs was directed to immediately verify her address with PSA, stay away from minors under the age of 18 unless there’s adult supervision, and that GPS monitoring was not a condition of her release.
New court documents released with Saturday’s arraignment hearing say Boggs gave conflicting accounts of what happened to both Kyon Jones’ father and police.
The mother first told the infant’s father around May 5th that Kyon would be gone "for a long time" because DC Child and Family Services (CPS) took him. Court documents say the father reached-out to the agency trying to confirm this.
Investigators also noted that at one point, Boggs told detectives she did not want her baby because of what she and the child’s father were going through.
On Saturday, May 8th, police say the Northeast DC mother called detectives to speak with them once more and admitted to sleeping in a bed with her son, and with the child "between her and a wall."
Boggs also said she woke withher stomach on top of her child, Kyon.
Boggs told investigators she found Kyon unresponsive and in another interview, said she panicked.
The Northeast mother admitted to disposing the baby in a dumpster. Court documents also say Boggs admitted to being under the influence of PCP and hallucinations at the time.
