'Starving mother' fails to appear in court for beginning of trial

Starving mother fails

The "starving mother" did not appear in the Jerusalem District Court Sunday morning for the beginning of her trial, due to health concerns following a recent birth. Judge Yosef Shapira gave the woman's defense attorney three days to respond to the indictment. The haredi woman is being tried for allegedly starving her three-year-old son.
