FLORIDA- Patricia Ripley was seen on surveillance video that was obtained by Univision, pushing her 9-year-old son, Alejandro into a canal, attempting to kill him.
In the video, you can clearly see Ripley grabbing her non-verbal autistic son, and walking along a canal with him. The boy can be seen putting his hand around his mother’s waist before she pushes him into the water and runs away.
A resident saw what happened, and came out of his home to save the boy who was drowning. As they were attempting to pull the child out, Ripley can be seen returning in disbelief, but acting as if her son had fell into the canal by accident.
This was Ripley’s first attempt in killing her non-verbal autistic son.
Ripley confessed to police that she then took her son to another canal where she drowned her son, telling police “He’s going to be in a better place.”
Ripley lied to police on Thursday, telling them that 2 black males had kidnapped her son..
Ripley is being charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder.
