CHICAGO, IL. (THECOUNT) — Chicago mother, Celeste T. Christian, has been identified as the suspect arrested after attempting to drown her 3-year-old son in a bathtub.
Christian, 21, is being held without bail on attempted murder charges after posting on social media that her son had passed away, and then trying to drown the boy.
Police say the hospital where the boy was transported received a call from an organ and tissue donor organization asking if he had yet arrived.
The boy survived and is hospitalized.
Chicago police say the boy’s father dropped him off at Christian’s home on Sunday. Investigators say she told them she noticed the boy wet himself. She told them she put him in a bath and left him alone for about 10 minutes to check on her 2-year-old daughter. She told them she found the toddler unresponsive when she returned. source
