On August 3, a tragic incident occurred in Rochester as the couple allegedly left their 3-month-old baby alone in the attic while smoking marijuana outside. The baby, placed on the attic floor, was mauled to death by the family's pit bull-type dogs after the couple had gone downstairs for over an hour. The Assistant DA stated that their actions reflected a conscious disregard for the risks involved, illustrating a grave level of recklessness.
Authorities highlighted that the parents, Sulamain Hawkins and Anastasia Weaver, knew the dogs posed a risk but chose to leave their infant unattended. The heartbreaking outcome was compounded by the unsuitable living conditions, as the family had been staying in an acquaintance's rented house where the dogs were known to be kept in the attic. The couple's actions and subsequent indecency sparked an outpouring of outrage and concern from the community.
