New details are emerging in the case of a 21-year-old college student and cheerleader from the University of Kentucky accused of hiding her newborn inside her college apartment closet.

Laken Snelling's case is on its way to a grand jury. The panel is expected to hear evidence in late January. The grand jury will likely be asked to indict Snelling on the three charges she initially pleaded not guilty to, and there’s possibly a count of murder or manslaughter depending on the newborn's autopsy results.

Laken Snelling is arrested after her infant is found dead in a trash bag inside the closet. An autopsy report only deepens the mystery surrounding the infant's death because the results are found to be inconclusive. Snelling posted baby bump pics before her infant was found dead.

Authorities allege Snelling gave birth in secret, wrapped her baby in a towel, placed him in a trash bag, and left him in her closet.

According to an arrest report, Lexington police were called to a home on Park Avenue for an unresponsive infant on Wednesday. Police said they found a baby's body in a closet, wrapped in a towel inside a black trash bag.

The UK cheerleader is now charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence, and concealing the birth of an infant.

Court records show Snelling took selfies during the birth.

Sarah Grace Patrick is accused of murdering her mother and stepfather while they were asleep in their bed, leaving their bodies to be discovered by the couple's five-year-old daughter. The trial was schedule to begin yesterday, January 5, 2026, but has now been delayed until August awaiting a report from a forensic neuropsychologist who evaluated the teen over several visits in August 2025. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack break down the scene of the crime, trajectory of bullets and sound...is it possible shots were fired in the home but not heard by a 16-year-old? Also, the long, "crying without tears" eulogy of the now accused teen.
