Brooke Skylar Richardson

Brooke Skylar Richardson says she suffers from panic attacks now, months after being acquitted of murdering her newborn baby.

“There is no way she would ever hurt anyone,” Brooke Skylar Richardon's father, Scott Richardson, says in an upcoming episode of "48 Hours." 

Although the judge said he believed Brooke Skylar Richardson had shown a “grotesque disregard for human life,” he said he was prevented by the law from going outside the sentencing guidelines.

Prosecutors said Brooke Skylar Richardson buried the baby in her parents' backyard.

“I tried to cremate the baby just a little,” Brooke Skylar Richardson allegedly said.  

"I didn't think she was breathing and I squeezed her too tight,” Brooke Skylar Richardson allegedly told police in a second interrogation tape played for the jury Monday.
