DENVER -- An Alaska woman who is accused of killing her newborn baby by putting him in a bag and shoving it in a closet was booked into a jail in Grand Junction Friday.

Morgan Hite, 22, was extradited from Alaska on charges of first-degree murder in connection with the death of her son in February, reported the Daily Sentinel.

According to the arrest affidavit, while visiting her parents on Feb. 25, Hite delivered the child in a neighbor's bathtub.

Hite had been hiding her pregnancy from her parents, the affidavit said. She then carried the baby back to her parent's house and put it in a plastic bag.

Two months later, Hite's parents, looking for a strong smell, discovered the decaying body and contacted police, the affidavit said.

Hite had moved to Alaska and was living with her 4-year-old daughter, police said.

Her daughter is now in the custody of Hite's boyfriend in Alaska.
