A mother who was ‘high on ecstasy’ was filmed fracturing her baby’s skull by dropping him on his head while fleeing from police. Kayla Morgan, 23, can be seen letting go of the three month-old infant while being pursued by cops along Highway 40 in Marion County, Florida, on Monday. She walks away from a female sheriff’s deputy who tries to stop her to talk, despite the cop warning Morgan that she is not in any trouble.
When the deputy picks up speed in an attempt to catch up with the mom, she speeds up too. An arrest report describes how Morgan held the little boy ‘as if she were carrying a jacket over her right arm, allowing the victim to flail.’
After dropping the child, deputies managed to apprehend Morgan, who was zapped with a taser twice before being arrested. Eyewitnesses told WFTV they believed that the mother was high on party drug esctasy because of the barking sounds she kept making at bystanders. When asked for her name after being arrested, she screamed ‘Bitch.’
She went on to tell cops that she believed a monster was trying to suck her blood, and that she had been high on ecstasy for three days, it is alleged. In a mugshot taken afterwards, Morgan appears to be gurning for the camera. Morgan has been charged with aggravated child abuse and resisting arrest.
