Indictment: Infant died after being fed vodka by father
A DeKalb County father has been indicted on charges that he fed his infant daughter vodka, and she later died.
Keith Antonine Furlow, of Stone Mountain, was indicted on charges of murder and cruelty to children said he mixed baby formula with vodka and fed it to his 4-month-old on June 8.
"The baby consumed the vodka. Obviously at that age a child isn't old enough to get up and go pick up a bottle herself. Children at 4 months old are fed whatever it is they consume. The evidence, we believe, will show that he actually fed the baby the vodka," DeKalb County District Attoey Robert James said.
The baby was taken to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston, where she was pronounced dead, prosecutors said.
Furlow, 20, remains in the DeKalb County jail, awaiting a bond hearing.
