Otty Sanchez, Baby Beheading: Devil Made Mom Kill Her Baby Otty Sanchez killed her almost 4-week-old baby by stabbing, mutilating and beheading him. She told police that the devil made her kill her baby. She said the baby beheading was the result of hearing voices that told her to do it.
Otty Sanchez is 33-years-old and lives in San Antonio, Texas in a very modest home with her sister and her sister’s two young children. Their mother lives in a small structure behind the house. On June 30, 2009, Otty gave birth to a baby boy she named Scott Wesley Buchholtz Sanchez. In the early morning hours of Sunday, July 26, 2009, the San Antonio police were called to the Sanchez home and made a grizzly discovery.
Police describe the scene as one of the most gruesome they had ever seen. When they arrived at the home, Otty Sanchez was sitting on the couch, crying and screaming that she had killed her baby and wanted to die. She had stabbed herself several times in the abdomen and chest in an apparent attempt to kill herself. The worst was yet to come. They found her 3 1/2 week old infant baby son on a bed in a pool of blood, decapitated. Apparently, Otty’s mother had been awakened during the night, about 4:30 am, by her daughter’s screams. She saw Sanchez holding the baby and that the baby had been beheaded. She took the baby’s body from Sanchez, put him on the bed and called the police.
A knife was found next to the baby’s body and is thought to have been the weapon used to kill and mutilate him. There were also swords in the house, although police report that they don’t believe they were used in the crime. The baby’s body was missing body parts. Police report that Sanchez indicated she had ingested the missing body parts, but that’s yet to be verified.
The other young children in the home were found unharmed and have been taken into child protective services pending further investigation.
Sanchez has not been known to have a criminal history. The only police record she has is from May 2008, when her mother called police to report her missing. At that time, the mother reported she thought she had gone to Austin, Texas to get drugs. Otherwise, there has been no known history of criminal activity or mental issues.
Sanchez was taken to the hospital for treatment of her self inflicted knife wounds. She’s in stable condition and none of the wounds are life threatening. She was charged by proxy with capital murder and is held on $1 million bond. If convicted, she could face the death penalty.
