Mom: Colton Turner had a seizure and was buried
AUSTIN (KXAN) – When it appeared 2-year-old Colton Turner was having a seizure, his parents took him to a motel because they were afraid of being arrested if they took him to a hospital, court documents show.
Meagan Work, the boy’s mother, and Michael Brandt Turner, Work’s boyfriend, both face a charge of tampering with physical evidence after police found Colton Turner’s body buried near Felter Lane in Southeast Austin.
According to the probable cause document in the case, Work and Colton went to work with Turner on July 6th or 7th. Shortly after he started working, Turner told police he heard Work yelling for him. He ran outside and found Colton was not breathing normally.
Investigators indicate he may have been having a seizure. Turner told investigators he climbed into the car and was going to drive the toddler to the hospital but Work told him they’d get in trouble and Colton would be taken from them.
Instead, Turner drove to a motel where Work put ice on Colton’s head because he seemed hot.
Work told investigators she fell asleep and discovered Colton was dead the next morning. She and Turner waited until sundown to bury Colton. The pair wrapped him in a purple blanket and buried him in a shallow grave that Turner dug with a knife. Then, they decided to move Colton’s body to a different, deeper location off of Felter Lane. Turner borrowed a shovel to dig the grave and then covered the site with wood and sheet rock.

Oh GMAFB...So your 2-year old has a life threatening seizure and you neglect to seek medical attention because you're too scared of having him taken away by cps so you'd rather risk him dying..sounds legit.
