University of Kentucky stunt team cheerleader Laken Snelling was spotted for the first time since being placed on house arrest following serious allegations connected to the death of her newborn.

In photos shared by the Daily Mail on Monday, October 6, Snelling, 21, was seen being dropped off by her father, Terry, at her mother Michelle’s house in Jefferson County, Tennessee. Snelling — whose parents are divorced — is currently serving her house arrest at both her mom and dad’s homes.

Pictures from the publication showed Snelling exiting her dad’s truck while wearing a pale pink pajama set with her blonde hair pulled back in a loose braid. She wore no makeup — a stark contrast from what she looked like when she appeared in court on September 26 and waived her right to a preliminary trial.

Snelling allegedly gave birth to her son in the early hours of August 27. Hours later, her roommates discovered the baby’s body wrapped in a towel inside a closet in their home in Lexington, Kentucky. Snelling was arrested on August 30 and charged with concealing the birth of a baby, abuse of a corpse and tampering with physical evidence.

As National Enquirer previously reported, investigators found photos on Snelling’s phone showing her in labor, as well as an internet search for “concealed or hidden pregnancy,” according to a search warrant obtained by WKYT-TV on September 29.

Lexington police said several of those images had been deleted, leading them to believe additional evidence tied to the pregnancy and birth may also have been removed.

Snelling’s case is awaiting review by a grand jury expected to convene in October. However, no official date has been confirmed.
