A 26-year-old mother in Indiana is facing neglect charges for nearly letting her infant child starve to death, with cops comparing the baby’s malnourished and emaciated condition to “that of a Holocaust survivor,” according to police officials.

Christin Donat, of Evansville, was thrown behind bars last week by the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office following an investigation by Indiana’s Department of Child Services. Local sheriff Noah Robinson told reporters at a press conference that Donat’s 2-month-old son was taken away from Donat by a friend of hers and rushed to the hospital while Donat rested at home following a work shift at Dollar General. The baby was suffering from severe malnutrition, dehydration and starvation and weighed just 6 pounds, 6 ounces — two ounces less than what he weighed at birth, according to CBS affiliate WEVV.
