ISP: Shipshewana Mother Charged with Murder in Infant’s Death
Indiana State Police say detectives gathered enough evidence in a four-month investigation to charge Chantell Cunningham with murder and neglect of a dependent causing death.
- On Wednesday, 24-year-old Chantel Cunningham was charged with murder and neglect of a dependent causing death following her infant son Greyson Lee Cunningham's death in Shipshewana during April.
- Indiana State Police detectives were called to a residence on April 6 and began a multi-agency investigation with the LaGrange County Coroner, Sheriff, and Shipshewana Marshal to determine circumstances surrounding the death.
- An autopsy revealed the infant died of multiple skull fractures, contradicting Cunningham's claim she dropped him; police found she had not taken prescribed seizure medicine for four months.
- Cunningham remains held at the LaGrange County Jail while awaiting trial, facing a maximum 80-year prison sentence and a $10,000 fine if convicted on both Level 1 felony counts.
- Records show Cunningham has no prior criminal history in the Indiana Court's MyCase database, while the LaGrange Superior Court has not yet released the probable cause affidavit requested on Tuesday.
