sentencing of the mother to a

begged of from her junior high
school classes on the ground
she had to take care Of her IL
Legitimate child.
The mother. on the other
hand. had been collecting pub
llic assistance at the same time,
on the ground she could not
work because she was the one
who had to stay at home and
care for the infant.
Judge Edith H. Cockrill de-
lcided the mothers story was the
Hess plausible Of the two. Ad-
dressing the defendant parent
