Prosecutors say Victoria Moreno was seen on surveillance video pushing 3-year-old Josiah Brown off of Navy Pier, and then standing by and doing nothing as he sank to the bottom of Lake Michigan.
A woman now faces first-degree murder charges in the death of her 3-year-old nephew, after prosecutors say she pushed him into Lake Michigan off Navy Pier last month., after prosecutors said she was seen on surveillance video pushing 3-year-old Josiah Brown into the lake on Sept. 19, and then standing by and doing nothing as he sank to the lake bottom off Chicago's Navy Pier, where divers found him a half-hour later.
Another family member became alarmed when she noticed Moreno and the child were gone. Moreno was not allowed to drive because of medication she's on for mental health issues. Shortly after noon, she parked at Navy Pier and entered a McDonald's to order food, getting a Happy Meal for Josiah. Moreno sat and stared into the water as the child was drowning, prosecutors alleged. All the events were caught on surveillance cameras.
