One big takeaway from the hearing on Thursday -- Judge Jim Goodwin denied a request from the defense to sever some of Boswell's charges.

The defense originally wanted to have separate trials, and have a trial for her false reporting charges, and a trial for her bigger charges, like murder.

Another topic during the hearing -- possibly moving the trial to a new location in Tennessee -- or bringing in a pool of jurors from elsewhere.

A hearing regarding a change of venue was set for June 20.

THIS makes me cry. If the family didn't want the child, there were many people who would've wanted to love on her and care for her properly. The mother should be forced to have her tubes tied as she seems to be uncapable of taking care of a child. This wasn't a dog or cat! I hope she learns from this awful experience and becomes a better person.
