"Mom accused of tossing son off bridge sought money" Associated Press November 05, 2014
GRANTS PASS, Ore. — A woman who appealed for money online to help care for her autistic son and disabled husband has been accused of throwing her 6-year-old boy to his death off a historic bridge on the Oregon coast.
Police said Jillian Meredith McCabe, 34, called 911 from the bridge in Newport as darkness fell Monday to report what she had done and waited until police arrived.
‘‘I just threw my son over the Yaquina Bay Bridge,’’ McCabe told the dispatcher, according to a probable cause affidavit filed Tuesday in Lincoln County Circuit Court. She described her son, London, and the clothes he was wearing. His body was found at a bayside resort, police said.
Andrew McCabe confirmed Tuesday his sister-in-law had written an appeal on YouCaring.com, a crowd-funding website.
All the rage from what I read, and now, like everything else, it's riddled with fraud.
She described caring for her autistic son and her husband, who has been unable to work since developing multiple sclerosis and a mass on his brain stem.
