An American woman named Madeline Veronique Daly kidnapped her nearly one-year-old son, Basil Stoner, from Wyoming and fled to New Mexico despite a court order transferring custody to the child’s father. Police discovered the incident through her new employer, who checked her background. On December 23 of last year, deputies from Grant County arrived at her residence. While waiting for a search warrant, they heard gunshots. Daly shot her son with a pistol. The boy was taken to the hospital but died from his injuries. After her arrest, Daly claimed the act was 'worth it,' stating that the father and his family would never see Basil again. She also told investigators she believed the child was in danger if he remained with his father, claiming the father did not want anything to do with Basil.
