Summary

***TW/CW: Infanticide, Neonaticide, Pregnancy, R*pe, incest, abortion, and the issues that accompany the discussions of the loss of an infant– listener discretion is advised. ***

In Part 2 of this Classic City Crime Podcast special, host Cameron Jay revisits the case of infant Jonathan Foundling from 1996. He sits down and speaks with Derek Jackson, the young resident life coordinator at the University of Georgia who dialed 911 upon discovery of the infant's body in the basement bathroom of the student dormitory.

We also take a look at Safe Haven Laws and Abortion laws in Georgia- and how they might have, or might not have- made a difference in the outcome of this case.
