BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (WMBD) — Grim details emerged from a Friday bond hearing for a Bloomington mom accused of concealing the death of her missing seven-month-old daughter.
Court documents from Assistant State’s Attorney Brad Rigdon revealed on Feb. 15, Kimberlee Burton had a jail video visit with a female family member.
Burton told the family member that Zaraz V. Walker, her infant daughter, died after falling asleep between her legs two weeks prior. Burton then told the family member that she concealed the death because she, “didn’t want to deal with nobody.”
She also revealed she buried Walker in a cemetery near her home.
Rigdon said Burton made similar statements in another video visit with a different female family member.
Multiple state agencies conducted a search in the cemetery and surrounding area and found no human remains, nor any other evidence of the infant.
