Documents: Bellevue Police Found Baby Unresponsive in Dirty House

bellevue-police-patchBELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — Court documents show Bellevue police found an unresponsive 2-month-old baby in dirty living conditions at her father’s house.

A warrant shows officers were called to the house on Dec. 21. Jasmine Thompson was located and later pronounced dead at a hospital.

Officers reported seeing an empty bassinet without a mattress and mildew or mold. There were several bags of garbage in the kitchen, and the house smelled of bleach and feces.

Jasmine was declared a ward of the state shortly after her birth in October. Authorities say her mother tested positive for drugs when she gave birth.

Three other children have since been removed from the house. No one has been arrested or charged in connection with Jasmine’s death.
