Ex-University of Kentucky cheerleader Laken Snelling is still maintaining her innocence after allegedly killing her newborn son, stuffing his body in a trash bag and then ordering McDonalds.

Snelling, 21, pleaded not guilty to first-degree manslaughter charges in court Friday after leaving the infant to die in a closet after giving birth early Aug. 27, authorities said.

Soon after the babys body was discovered , Snelling was charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence and concealing the birth of an infant, to which she pleaded not guilty.

She was then hit with the manslaughter charges last month, after the Kentucky Medical Examiners Office told a grand jury that the baby was born alive and his cause of death was asphyxia by undetermined means, police said.

Snelling was booked into the Fayette County Detention Center, although she was then seen walking the streets just hours later, after her father reportedly posted her $10,000 bond.

She faces a maximum of 20 years in prison for the first-degree manslaughter charge and an additional 11 years for the remaining charges if found guilty.

Snellings horrified college roommates were the first to discover the dead baby boy in a black plastic bag stuffed in her closet at their shared off-campus home in Lexington.

In her room, they also found a blood-soaked towel on the floor and a plastic bag containing evidence of childbirth as well as the infant, who was cold to the touch, they told a 911 operator.

The roommates who had suspected the cheerleader was concealing a pregnancy told cops theyd heard loud, strange noises coming from Snellings room around the time she gave birth at roughly 4 a.m.

Snelling then allegedly tried to clean up the scene, showered and left the house skipping morning classes and a visit to the school clinic and went to McDonalds.

Snelling initially claimed during an interview with police that the baby fell on the floor after she gave birth but that she didnt think he was breathing or alive.

She soon changed her story, saying she had passed out on top of the baby and woke up to find him turning blue and purple.

An investigation revealed she told medical staff that the newborn had shown a little bit of fetal movement and made a whimper after he was born.

A pretrial conference in Snellings case is scheduled for May 14, and a status hearing is set for June 12.

Her lawyer could not immediately be reached for comment.

肯塔基大学前啦啦队员莱肯·斯内林被控杀害新生儿子后，仍坚称自己无罪。据称，她将婴儿尸体装入垃圾袋，随后还点了麦当劳外卖。

据当局透露，21岁的斯内林（Snelling）于8月27日凌晨分娩后将婴儿遗弃在壁橱内致其死亡，并于周五在法庭上对一级过失杀人指控表示不认罪。

婴儿尸体被发现后不久，斯内林（Snelling）被指控虐待尸体、篡改物证及隐瞒婴儿出生事实，但她对此表示不认罪。

警方称，肯塔基州法医办公室向大陪审团表示婴儿出生时存活且死因是‘原因不明的窒息’后，她于上月被控过失杀人罪。

斯内林（Snelling）被登记关押在费耶特县拘留中心，但据称其父亲缴纳了1万美元保释金后，仅数小时便有人看见她在街头行走。

若罪名成立，她将因一级过失杀人罪面临最高20年监禁，其余指控还将追加11年刑期。

斯内林（Snelling）惊恐的大学室友们是第一批发现死婴的人——这个男婴被装在黑色塑料袋里，塞在她位于列克星敦校外合租公寓的衣柜中。

他们告诉911接线员，在她的房间里还发现了一条浸满血迹的毛巾和一个装有分娩证据的塑料袋，以及那名婴儿——触摸时已浑身冰凉。

室友们曾怀疑这位啦啦队队员隐瞒了怀孕事实。他们告诉警方，在斯内林（Snelling）大约凌晨4点分娩时，听到她的房间传来响亮而奇怪的声响。

据称，斯内林随后试图清理现场，冲完澡后离开了房子——既没去上早课，也没去校医院——而是去了麦当劳。

斯内林（Snelling）最初在接受警方问询时声称，婴儿在她分娩后掉在了地上，但她认为婴儿当时已没有呼吸或已经死亡。

她很快改口，称自己当时昏倒在婴儿身上，醒来时发现孩子“脸色发青发紫”。

调查显示，她曾告知医护人员新生儿出生后出现过轻微胎动并发出过呜咽声。

斯内林（Snelling）案件的审前会议定于5月14日举行，状态听证会则安排在6月12日。
