(Iowa City, IA) -- The woman charged with the first-degree murder of her baby nearly 33 years ago says she hid her pregnancy from her family, and even tried to induce a miscarriage by punching herself in the stomach.
The body of a baby belonging to then 26 year-old Cindy Sue Elder was found by a garbage truck driver in the Iowa City landfill in December 1992.
The case went unsolved until yesterday when police announced the now 58 year-old Elder had been arrested and charged in Missouri.
