Woman studying to be a nun gave birth in convent in secret and smothered the baby boy so no one would hear him cry

A 26-year-old woman studying to becoming a Catholic nun smothered her newborn son to death because she didn't want anyone to find out she had sex, police said today. DC Police say Sosefina Amoa gave birth to the boy on October 10 in her room at the Little Sisters of the Poor elderly care facility. Afraid the nuns would hear the newborn's cries and discover she lied about sexual activity, police say Amoa told investigators she smothered him. The hospital called police. A day later she and a nun took his body to a hospital in a small, black luggage bag. She allegedly told detectives she 'heard the child cry for two to three minutes' and then, worried that someone would hear, she covered the baby's mouth with a wool garment.
