A New Jersey woman allegedly confessed to stabbing her baby brother in the chest — and claimed voices told her to do it.
Detectives investigating what happened during the Nov. 1 attack in Brick Township spoke to Marlene Rodriguez’s cousin, who alleged the 20-year-old brought up the topic of human sacrifice, asking the cousin if they’d ever sacrificed anyone.
Soon after, in the same house, the boy’s mom says she could hear him crying, went to his room, and found him with stab wounds and a knife on the floor next to him.
The 2-year-old survived.
