Mom told police son was 'devil' amid tragic discovery in Frankfort home, court docs reveal
Prosecutors say Corie A. Walsh told investigators she killed her son because she believed he was the devil and the anti-Christ.
- On Tuesday, Illinois mother Corie Walsh was charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old son, Barrett Walsh, in their Frankfort home.
- A neighbor discovered Barrett hanging in the basement and performed CPR, while police found Walsh in an upstairs bathroom 'fully dressed, surrounded by bloody water,' prosecutors said.
- Prosecutors allege Walsh told investigators she killed her son because he was the 'devil' and 'anti-Christ,' and witnesses reported she had 'recently become very invested in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.'
- Walsh, 40, is currently held at the Will County jail, while attorney Andrea Lyon asserts she 'was experiencing a psychotic episode at the time this happened.'
- Prosecutors are seeking to keep the defendant detained pending trial as the legal process continues to test the allegations surrounding Barrett's death through the judicial system.
