Baltimore mother charged in the death of her 4-year-old son searched for trash collection sites on her phone before taking a Lyft to dispose of the boy's body in a dumpster, prosecutors say.

A Baltimore mother charged in the death of her 4-year-old son searched for trash collection sites on her phone before taking a Lyft to dispose of the boy's body in a dumpster, prosecutors said.

The Baltimore Police Department and FBI created posters for Malachi shortly after he was reported missing on Thursday, conducting an extensive search for him in the area. Lawson and her partner, Shatika Lawson, 40, were arrested and charged with neglect that resulted in the death of a minor, Harrison said.

A public defender who is representing Alicia Lawson did not address the allegations in court on Monday but stated that she kept a steady job at McDonald's for four to five years, the Baltimore Sun reported. Melissa Rothstein, director of policy and development for the Maryland Office of the Public Defender, declined to comment on the case to ABC News.

When they turned to Malachi, he had serious burns all over his lower body, according to the statement. The women attempted to care for Malachi's wounds themselves, rather than seek medical treatment, because they had a past history with child protective services and feared that they would"get in trouble for what had happened."

This poor little boy 💔

Death penalty

I'm sure Elijah Cummings is proud of his citizen.

fuck me

This is horrific. That poor baby! ❤️

This woman should get the DEATH PENALTY.

OMG very disgusting.

No surprise it is in the failed city of Baltimore. Maybe Elija Cummings will address that mother's are now killing their children rather than having them live in the cesspool of Baltimore.

Punctuation, punctuation.
