Paris Mayo who gave birth aged 15 while parents were upstairs ‘murdered baby boy before dumping his body in bag’
Published 2 years ago on May 11, 2023

Paris Mayo, now 19, had taken a warm bath believing she had period pains when she "unexpectedly" went into labour, it was said.

She gave birth to the baby, named Stanley, in the living room of her family home in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire , while her mum tended to her sick dad upstairs.

Mayo then allegedly assaulted the baby - causing a severe brain injury - before suffocating him with cotton wool two hours later when she realised he was still alive.

Worcester Crown Court heard she later messaged her older brother, saying: "When you go outside, can you put the black bag in the bin, it's just full of sick from last night, please".

But when Mayo's mum looked inside, she screamed out hysterically "there's a baby in the bag", jurors heard.

Emergency crews were called, with the mum heard telling her young daughter: "You could have told me, darling. Poor baby. Why didn’t you tell me?”

Paramedics arrived and found Mayo in the house sitting with her mum, holding the baby who was "wrapped in a sheet" and showed no signs of life.

Jurors heard the teen said she didn’t know she was pregnant and the baby had “fallen out of her”.

She had hoped her mum would think the newborn was "rubbish" and "throw it out", it was said.
