5 April 2023
Open Justice reports 21-year-old Esence Mackie has appeared in the Hamilton District Court today.
Court documents state she was responsible for the baby's care - and this was a "major departure from the standard of care expected of a reasonable person".
She has been remanded on bail to reappear later this month.
The charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years jail.
