Mom Charged with Unborn Baby’s Death After Woman Shoots Her in Stomach out of Self-Defense

On Wednesday, an Alabama woman who was shot in the stomach last year was indicted in the death of her unborn baby girl.

During a dispute regarding the baby’s paternity in December 2018, the mother, identified as Marshae Jones, was shot in the stomach by another female out of what police said was self-defense; the baby, who was at about five months’ gestation, died from the gunshot wound.

Jones, 27, was indicted by a Jefferson County grand jury on a manslaughter charge and taken into police custody, AL.com reported. The woman who shot Jones, 23-year-old Ebony Jemison, had a manslaughter charge against her dismissed after a grand jury failed to indict her in the death of the baby girl, the outlet noted.

The dispute between Jones and Jemison occurred outside a Dollar General. Police were called to the location after Jones was shot by Jemison, but when they arrived, the mother was gone. Jones was later found at a convenience store and taken to a nearby hospital, where the baby was pronounced dead.

“The investigation showed that the only true victim in this was the unborn baby,’’ said Pleasant Grove police lieutenant Danny Reid after the shooting, according to AL.com. “It was the mother of the child who initiated and continued the fight which resulted in the death of her own unborn baby.” (Read more from “Mom Charged with Unborn Baby’s Death After Woman Shoots Her in Stomach out of Self-Defense” HERE)

According to the Liverpool Echo, Rebecca Melia’s mother died in February after a battle with kidney cancer, but she believes she spotted her face in an ultrasound photo of her baby boy.

You can see what Melia thinks is her mother’s face to the left of the baby’s calf:

Before she went for an ultrasound in June, she said she was talking to a photograph of her mother, “saying I wish she was coming with me.”

“This is her 14th grandchild and she has been there for every one,” the 30-year-old mother-to-be told the Echo. (Read more from “Woman ‘Shocked’ to See an Image in Ultrasound Picture That Was Completely Unrelated to Her Baby” HERE)
