Overview
- An autopsy found that 23-year-old Jimella Tunstall, seven months pregnant, was killed after a crude cesarean with scissors removed her unborn baby.
- Days earlier, Tiffany Hall told police she had delivered a stillborn, declined a full medical exam, and was allowed to take the fetus for burial.
- Hall’s boyfriend alerted police after she reportedly admitted the baby was taken from her friend, leading to her arrest the day Tunstall’s body was found.
- Investigators later discovered Tunstall’s children—Desmond, 7, Ivan, 2, and one-year-old Jinela—decomposing in a washing machine and a tumble dryer.
- Authorities said Hall indicated where the children were, investigators believe the children were drowned, and Hall ultimately pleaded guilty in 2008 to receive life without parole.
