called the police in a panic, claiming that her toddler was missing from their Savannah home and insisting that he had been abducted. But while the 23-year-old’s claims spurred national attention and a relentless search, authorities now say that by the time Simon called the police—she had already allegedly killed Quinton Simon and thrown his body in a mobile home dumpster.
Among the charges detailed in an indictment obtained by The Daily Beast include malice murder, concealing the death of another, false report of a crime, and false statements to police. Simon is being held at Chatham County Detention Center and it is not immediately clear if she has retained an attorney.
And the details of the case are anything less than jarring—including how many times Simon allegedly lied to police throughout the investigation and that she may have been on drugs at the time of the murder. Prosecutors allege that Simon also falsely stated “that the only controlled substance of which she was a regular user was marijuana” and that she had only smoked in the last 24 hours. Later, the indictment said she admitted to using “controlled substances” the night of Oct. 4.
