Murder of baby alleged

PERTH:

A Supreme Court jury heard yesterday how a 17 year-old girl concealed from her parents that she was pregnant and then gave birth to a baby boy in her bedroom.

In an alleged statement given to the police, Miss Amelia Maria Martins said she was frightened her mother would hear the baby crying so she put a blanket over its face and suffocated it.

She then placed the baby’s body in a wardrobe overnight before burying it in the back yard the next morning.

Miss Martins, now 18, of Armadale, 34 kilometres from Perth, has pleaded not guilty to a charge of wilfully murdering a male child in Armadale on June 18 this year.

Mr Manuel Martins, the accused’s father, 43, told the jury through an interpreter how he had discovered an area of disturbed soil in the garden on June 19.

He had noticed some paper and part of a blanket with blood on it.

On further examination he had seen two fingers and some hair of what appeared to be a baby.

He said he had not known his daughter was pregnant as she always wore big dresses.

The accused’s mother, Mrs Maria Martins, also said she did not know her daughter was going to have a baby.

Detective-Sergeant Francis Kirkby, of Perth CIB, said he interviewed Miss Martins at her home on June 19. She had told him she had had the baby about 4pm the previous day in her bedroom on her own.

Sergeant Kirkby said Miss Martins then made a written statement which said she had become pregnant and decided not to tell her parents.

In the alleged statement, she said she woke up on June 18 with pains and, by the afternoon, they were coming closer together. She then had lain on her bed.

When the baby had come, she had cut the umbilical cord with a razor blade.

When the baby had begun to cry, she had put a blanket over the baby’s face.

She had not wanted to kill the baby “but I had to as I didn’t want mum to know I had a baby”, the alleged statement concluded.
