A woman accused of leaving her newborn baby to die in a Kohl’s department store trash can entered a plea Friday morning to amended charges in the case.

WAVE 3 News reports that Jessica Price accepted an Alford plea, which means the defendant does not admit guilt but acknowledges that there is enough evidence to convict her. She was charged with manslaughter, tampering with physical evidence and abuse of a corpse. She previously was charged with murder, rather than manslaughter.
