Evil mum poisoned baby son by pouring BLEACH into his feeding tube so she could ‘get a good night’s sleep’

AN evil mum poured bleach down her baby boy’s feeding tubes, so she could “get a good night’s sleep” a court has heard today. Brooke Evelyn Lucas, 26, from Perth, Australia, said she was so desperate to take a break that she felt “relaxed and relieved,” when the poison took hold of her son in December 2018. 7newsWilliam was born with a rare condition meaning he needs around the clock care[/caption] 7newsBut today a court heard his how mother, Brooke Evelyn Lucas, tried to poison him in order to ‘get sleep’[/caption] The young boy, who is now in the care of his grandparents, was born 14 weeks premature and suffers from Pierre Robin sequence which requires constant care and eating and breathing through a tube. He remained in hospital until December 24, 2018 where he was discharged to the care of his mother who called him a “Christmas miracle.” But, today the Supreme Court heard that just five days later, Mrs Lucas attempted to poison her son in an allegedly desperate attempt to get him to settle. She described to Police how the little boy had been lying in his cot in his home crying, when she went went to a nearby laundry to get a bottle of Exit Mould. The 26-year-old then poured the cleaning chemical into her son’s formula – drip-feeding the substance directly into his stomach. According to 7news, prosecutors say she then sat and watched her 13-month-old vomit and fit in seizures, until she eventually called emergency services – initially claiming that act was committed by the boy’s older sister.
