Kathy Coy's Sinister Plot

In April 2011, a chilling incident unfolded in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Ashley, a woman, discovered her friend Kathy Coy in a distressing state inside a car outside her house. Kathy, supposedly having just given birth, had a newborn baby with her, but shockingly, she was naked from the waist down, and the car seat had bloodstains. In a panic, Ashley rushed Kathy and the newborn to Bowling Green Medical Center.

The horrifying truth emerged at the hospital as doctors found Kathy's uterus, ovaries, and placenta still attached to the newborn. Investigating the events leading up to this gruesome discovery, it was revealed that Kathy had befriended pregnant women online, offering them assistance. Her sinister plan unfolded when she lured one of them, Jamie Stice, to a wooded area under the pretense of buying baby supplies. There, Kathy stunned Jamie with a gun, tied her up, and proceeded to brutally extract the baby from her womb.

Following a recent miscarriage, Kathy developed an obsession with motherhood and giving birth that was the driving force behind her disturbing behavior. Upon arrest, she initially claimed to be the biological mother of Jamie's baby but later concocted a story about buying the newborn from her friend Ashley for $550. Ultimately, Kathy led investigators to Jamie's lifeless body in a wooded area, resulting in her arrest and subsequent sentencing to life in prison without parole in February 2012. Despite the horrific nature of the crime, Jaime's family's wish for the death penalty was not fulfilled.
