CANTON, Ohio (AP) — A grand jury indicted a police officer on murder charges Thursday in the death of his pregnant girlfriend, whose 2-year-old son was left alone in an apartment to tell police: "Mommy was crying ... Mommy's in rug."
Bobby Cutts Jr. could receive the death penalty if convicted of killing Jessie Davis and her unborn child in June.
The murder indictments allege that Cutts killed Davis, terminated her pregnancy, and caused the death of a viable unborn child, "baby Chloe." Cutts, 30, also faces two counts of gross abuse of a corpse and one count each of aggravated burglary and endangering children.
