The vehicle was removed from the river and an infant was located inside the vehicle in a car seat. The family has been notified of this information and a positive identification is pending.

Not the outcome I was hoping for. Poor Lyrik and her mom. I feel horrible for both. I hope for justice for Lyrik and healing for her mother.

Poor sweet baby!!! Of course his sorry a## is fine. So tired of innocent ones being harmed or killed

 

[Marg from Oz]

Well it looks like the mother will be well rid of him. Poor baby never had a chance at life.

 

[SammieJean]

Oh no!

 

[evilwise]

Probably a half hearted suicide attempt and a baby is lost in the process. Disgraceful.

 

[Wild Rose]

Just makes you cry. The poor crew working there also.

Father charged after missing Texas infant found dead in submerged vehicle

"The father of a 4-month-old Texas girl who was found dead Tuesday in a submerged car has been charged with capital murder."

The mother of the Lyrik went to my high school. The information that I have gathered about the relationship was that it was turbulent 99% of the time. I and others that knew both think this was a suicide attempt and a way of really hurting her mother. Rest easy sweet Lyrik aka Babysita

 

[scapa]

Always amazes me how often the suicidal could murdered manages to save her or himself, while the child dies. Almost as if the adult finds the will to live just in time -- after depriving the child of that option. Horrific and pointless, as always.

The death of 16-week-old Lyrik Aliyana Brown shook the community this past summer.

She was still strapped into her car seat in the rear of a Volkswagen Jetta that was submerged in the Red River when she was found June 9, law enforcement officials said.

The infant was the subject of an Amber Alert after her father got into a dispute with her mother. The public was asked to look for her and Jeremy Brown, who authorities believed had abducted her in the Jetta. She was found the same day the alert was issued.

Police say Jeremy Brown assaulted the baby’s mother before he fled in the Jetta with the infant in the back seat. The mother reportedly pleaded with Jeremy Brown, who was 30 at the time, not to take the child.

Jeremy Brown was seen later that afternoon underneath the I-35 bridge on the south bank of the Red River where he reportedly told a witness he wrecked his vehicle and needed to borrow a cellphone. When first responders arrived, Jeremy Brown refused to say where the child was, authorities said.

Jeremy Brown resisted arrest when Cooke County Sheriff’s Office deputies tried to detain him, according to a previous Register report. He had to be subdued and handcuffed, court records state.

Jeremy Brown faces a third-degree felony assault charge and a capital murder charge. He was indicted Aug. 19, according to District Attorney John Warren.

“If found guilty of capital murder it is automatic life in prison, no parole,” Warren said.

Those found guilty of capital murder in Texas could also face the death penalty.

Jeremy Brown remains in custody at the Cooke County Jail on bonds totaling $1.25 million, jail records show.
