Olivet woman charged with abusing her 2-month-old son

LANSING - A 20-year-old Olivet woman was arrested Friday after family members raised concerns about injuries suffered by her infant son. 

Concerned family members brought Taylor Prahl-Six's two-month-old son to Sparrow Hospital on July 3. Tests showed the child had multiple brain bleeds as well as a possible skull fracture. 

Sparrow staff believe the boy's injuries stemmed from two separate assaults, according to a post on the Eaton County Sheriff's Office's Facebook page.

Detectives subsequently gathered evidence and information leading to a felony warrant for first-degree child abuse for Prahl-Six. She was arrested and taken to the Eaton County Jail shortly after the warrant was issued on Friday. 

Bond for Prahl-Six was set at $100,000 cash or surety. Her next court appearance is scheduled for August 3.
