Antoinette King, 33, was charged with one count of endangering the welfare of a child following the Saturday night incident.

Authorities say they responded to King’s home around 8:30 p.m. after a relative found King and her 1-year-old son Jerimiah unconscious and called for help. The mother had reportedly been lying on top of the little boy.

Police revived King by administering Narcan, but Jerimiah could not be revived. Both mother and son were taken to the hospital, where the little boy was pronounced dead.
