Baker's attorney, Irv Frazin, told reporters Saturday the abuse allegations against Baker were unfounded and the defense's version of events is "entirely different" to the one presented in court.



"Well, she denies all that. We'll get into that later," said Frazin. "That's their version. The defense version is entirely different."



Frazin claimed his client regularly suffered abuse at the hands of her boyfriend.



"I'm not going to talk about any of the facts that are going to come out in trial, but I can tell you she's been abused and beaten on a regular basis. She's been hospitalized regularly by a man who is in the lock-up with her," Frazin said.



Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez called Bryeon's death "particularly heinous" and said the false cover-up wasted police resources.



"It was a cruel hoax made only more sinister in that they were covering up the murder of this child," Alvarez said.



Alvarez said prosecutors have no plans to charge more individuals in connection with Hunter's death at this time, but said the investigation continues.



"We believe at this point we have charged the two people who were responsible for this baby's death," she said.



Maywood Police Chief Timothy Curry said the department will continue to search for Bryeon's body.
