Cheerleader Laken Snelling Drops Out of School Amid Criminal Charges
Cheerleader Laken Snelling
Drops Out of University of Kentucky
Published
2:31 PM PT — University of Kentucky’s Public Relations and Strategic Communications Director Jay Blanton tells us Snelling “has withdrawn as a student and as a result is no longer on the team.”
Laken Snelling has dropped out of the University of Kentucky after she was charged in connection with an infant’s death … according to a local newspaper.
The 21-year-old — who was a cheerleader at UK — withdrew from the school, a spokesperson for the school told the Lexington Herald Leader.
No further information was provided … though it’s not exactly surprising given the criminal charges Snelling’s facing.
The Lexington Police Department arrested Snelling Sunday after a deceased infant was allegedly found wrapped in a towel inside a black trash bag, and she’s been charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence and concealing the birth of an infant … and law enforcement sources told us she’s admitted to the crime.
Snelling posted $100,000 bond and is on home incarceration with no ankle monitor at her parents’ home in Tennessee.
An autopsy was performed on the infant’s body … but initial results have been inconclusive, and “extensive microscopic analyses are essential to determine the cause and manner of death” according to the Fayette County Coroner’s office.
