Police say a mother caused life threatening injuries to her infant son, after shaking him.
It happened back in September in the city of Manistee. Joy Gutuski, 18, is now in the Manistee County jail. Police say she shook her three month old son so violently, it caused his skull to fracture and bleeding on his brain.
They say she likely shook her son several different times. He's now in a foster care home.

I have to agree with djc. Cops in Manistee will push anything on you. They do like to throw there weight around. But yes it is unfortunate that this innocent little baby had to endure sucha hard start in life, but hopefully now he will have a chance to have a better life. There are a lot of people out there who do not deserve to be parents, not just kids having kids but adults as well.
she amitted to doing it,so for the people out there that say it didnt happen watch the news, they say she amitted what more do u want. she is wrong and should be punished for it
Without knowing all the details we all know this woman is guilty! She confessed! Then you have these crazies come out of the closet stating she was set up or it was an accident!!
Wow, I am sure it was proven that the baby was shaken. Must be the friends and family of the mother that are sticking up for her. Makes me sick. That poor baby!!
vaccines have caused such things to happen in babies and mothers have been accused wrongly.. just because it is reported does not mean guilty.. It is unfortunate anyway you look at it.
If this child was injured in another way, she should still be in jail for abuse. This is an infant, not a toddler. An infant does not do much other then eat, sleep, pee, poop, smile and cry. Abuse is abuse no matter how she done it. She belongs right where she is! Will keep this innocent little one in my prayers. Hopefully the law can keep the woman right where she is!
I had my first child when I was 17 and I never, ever thought to do him any harm Being young is not an excuse or a reason. Not being responsible and not caring is.
Maybe the baby was injured in some other way. Parents have been accused of this when, in fact, no shaking actually occured. There is much debate about how injuries and illness happens to babies. Don't jump to conclusions.
what is wrong with her to do that to her baby she is way to young to be a mom the poor baby i hope he is going to be ok will pray for the little bundle of joy
