Investigators allege Burris also didn’t act fast enough when she realized Maren’s health was declining.
“Taylor admitted the incident occurred around 10:40 a.m. but didn’t call EMS until 2:05 p.m.,” the affidavit states, per the outlet. “When on the phone with dispatch, Taylor said that the infant had been in an unresponsive and impeded or apneic breathing state for 20 minutes before she called EMS. This was clearly neglectful behavior.”
According to Macon County Jail records, a judge ordered Burris' bail set at $250,000. She faces charges of involuntary manslaughter or reckless homicide, aggravated battery and endangering the life of a child.
It wasn’t immediately clear if she retained an attorney or entered a plea.
Burris is due to return to court July 15.
