A mother and father in Idaho tried to cover up the death of their 12-day-old baby, with cops saying the child suffocated in a “filthy” trailer and was then moved to a house, according to court documents. The dad allegedly told cops the mom rolled over on the baby while they were sleeping, after initially claiming he found the child unconscious in a bassinet.
Nampa police say Brian Lemke, 31, and Allysen Armenta, 28, texted each other after their child’s death instead of immediately calling police, according to court documents obtained by local NBC affiliate KTVB. Both are charged with felony injury to a child, hiding evidence, failing to report or delaying reporting a death, resisting and obstruction.
