I passed the Harahan police department yesterday and thought of little Bella. What a disgusting woman this was to hurt a sweet baby.

Bumping for Bella.

A Jefferson Parish woman accused of killing her boyfriend's child is set to go to trial this summer.

Bunnak "Hannah" Landon's trial date has been set for July 15 before Judge Nancy Miller.

Judge Miller, do your duty. I'm counting on it.

 

[mpnola]

Well. Jefferson Parish doesn't usually play. We are known to be tough on crime to deter the Orleans Parish crime from coming this way. If it was in Orleans Parish, I would be more worried about leniency. I hope (and think) she will have strict sentencing.

 

[GoBuckeyes]

Yeah but the bad wiring in her brain made her evil.

Choices.

Bunnak "Hannah" Landon is accused of killing Bella Fontenelle and then leaving her in a bucket on the child's mother's front lawn.

Trigger alert
I honestly don't know how any sane person can place a child into a bucket the way little Bella was found. It's the workings of a madwoman but unfortunately that's the only way I can make sense of it but it's entirely possible Landon did this with intent and purpose. It's frightening and despicable.

To me it's more than just placing her in a bucket. She stuffed her body into a bucket and then wheeled here down the street to leave her in the child's mother's front yard. She obviously knew what she was doing, IMO. It's not like she left Bella in just anyone's yard. She targeted her mother's yard.

Such a beautiful child that I wish hadn't met the evil that her father found attractive. Bella deserved to live.

RIP Bella. You're loved by many who don't even know you.

This case is so horrific. The fact that she left this poor baby in her mother's lawn for her to find her dead is diabolical.

Everything I've seen simply states 12/16 (no year) which is NOT helpful. However, all news sources where I found that info were months prior to December, so I'm guessing they left off the year figuring it was obvious it was this December 16th. Due to that I'm guessing it's happened, but not seeing any news about it. You'd think there's be more press activity for a case where a GF killer her BF's daughter, stuffed her into a barrel, and wheeled her blocks away to leave in the mother's front yard. You'd THINK.

Good. She knew just what she was doing. Otherwise, she would not have wheeled the poor baby over to her mother's porch. That's quite competent.
