A Florida woman admitted shaking her 3-month-old baby to death after the little boy’s crying distracted her from playing a popular Facebook game.
Alexandra Tobias, 22, told cops she was playing FarmVille and her baby, Dylan Lee Edmondson, wouldn’t stop crying.
According to the Florida Times-Union, Tobias confessed to shaking the baby, smoking a cigarette to calm down and then shaking the baby again.
The young mom called paramedics after he stopped breathing. He was taken to a hospital with head injuries and a broken leg. Doctors said the infant died from “abusive head trauma.”
Tobias pleaded guilty on Wednesday.
Tobias initially told police the child hit his head and stopped breathing after a dog knocked him off a couch, Jacksonville television station WJXT reported.
She later confessed to losing her temper while trying to concentrate on the game. (source)
