Child Abuse 911 Call

Amanda Brooks and Terry Lay could both face murder charges once the autopsy is complete. That should happen Thursday. It was brooks herself who called 9-1-1 asking for an ambulance. She and her husband are then the ones responsible for giving their 3 year old son Kalab CPR trying to save his life. Dispatcher: Evansville 9-1-1 Brooks: Yes. I need an ambulance.
