$700,000 bond for mom in infant's death case
Bond has been set at $700,000 for a 25-year-old Chicago woman charged with first-degree murder in the October death of her infant daughter.
Chicean Crosby's daughter, also named Chicean, was found dead October 13 by paramedics responding to a call that the child was unresponsive.
After the child's death was ruled a homicide by the Cook County medical examiner's office on April 10, Crosby was arrested and charged on Saturday.
Chicago police said in October the death of the child did not appear to be the result of criminal activity. No cause of death was given by the medical examiner's office at the time pending further investigation.
The child's death was later determined to have been caused by dehydration, malnutrition and negligence.
