Before this most recent tragedy, which occurred earlier this summer, Brook Hunter had already received a warning from the prosecution not to co-sleep with her children after another of her children passed away from the same cause last year.
She is currently wanted on suspicion of involuntary manslaughter and endangering children after inadvertently murdering her newborn child while sharing a bed with the youngster — the second such occurrence to occur while she was in charge of the child.

According to FOX 19 and WCPO-0, Brook Hunter reportedly shared a bed with her 6-month-old baby on June 22. As a result, the baby passed away.
Co-sleeping, or bed-sharing, is described as when a parent sleeps in close physical contact with their child, typically in a bed or a couch or chair.
Media outlets were informed by Assistant Prosecutor Amy Causing that when Hunter’s first child died, the prosecution’s office had warned her against co-sleeping with children.
A warrant was issued on Wednesday for Hunter’s arrest, and as of Friday it was still valid.
The press was given a photo of Brook Hunter from a different arrest.
On the practice of co-sleeping, the American Academy of Pediatrics says parents should not be “bed sharing with your baby under any circumstances.”
“If you bring your baby into your bed to feed or comfort them, place them in their own sleep space when you’re ready to go to sleep,” the AAP’s website reads. The organization also notes that the risk of sleep-related infant death while sharing a bed with a parent is “5 to 10 times higher when your baby is younger than 4 months olds.”
