CNN —A mother who kept her baby daughter in a drawer under her bed for almost three years has been jailed for seven and a half years in Britain. He went on to tell the court that the little girl was left alone when her mother went to work, took the other children to school and even when she went to stay with relatives over Christmas. He alerted family members and later that day social services attended the property, where they found the girl in a drawer. When confronted, the mother “did not show any emotion and appeared blasé,” the social worker told the court in a statement. During an interview with police, the woman said had not known she had been pregnant and was “really scared” giving birth.
