A Lawton woman has been ordered to stand
trial on charges she killed her infant son.
A Comanche County judge ruled Wednesday there was sufficient
evidence for 20-year-old Julie Ann Burt-Gibbons to stand trial on
one count of second-degree murder.
Burt-Gibbons' son, Ransom, died Dec. 28 after being flown to an Oklahoma City hospital with brain injuries.
The woman claims the child was injured after falling off a bed.
Prosecutors contend the child was hit or shaken.
Burt-Gibbons remained jailed Wednesday on a $500,000 bond. She is expected to be formally arraigned within the next week.
