An Oklahoma woman is facing charges after police say she fell asleep on her n2-month old son last year while intoxicated.

The Oklahoma City Police Department reported the arrest of 33-year-old Brennan Spencer last week on charges related to second-degree murder, following the death of her baby son in 2024.

In November 2024, it’s alleged that Spencer dozed off on a couch with her newborn twins, as detailed in an arrest affidavit by the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office. She is said to have woken up hours later to find one of the babies, named Rory Kelson, deceased at her feet, while the other twin was still asleep in her embrace.

Emergency services responded to a residence near May Avenue and Southwest 89th Street in Oklahoma City and discovered the infant unresponsive. Court filings disclosed that prior to falling asleep with the twins, Spencer and the children’s father, James Kelson, had consumed “a 12-pack of White Claw alcoholic seltzers,” according to People magazine.

Kelson told police that the babies had been “laid in the bassinets at the foot of their bed,” before he went to sleep, at a little before 1 a.m. He said he woke up at around 6:45 a.m. and noticed the infants were not in their bassinets.

Kelson said he then went to the living room and found Spencer on the couch with the twins.

When police interviewed Spencer, she admitted that she went to the store at around 1 a.m. and bought four more “tall boy” White Claws 19-ounce cans. Security footage showed her leaving a 7-Eleven store at around 1:30 a.m.

Oklahoma’s News 4 reports that investigators said that Spencer admitted that she was “probably really drunk… drunk enough to just need to pass out.”

Spencer claimed she passed out on the couch and didn’t remember anything that followed on the night in question. In the medical examiner’s report, the medical examiner wrote he “felt the child was a victim of neglect,” and Spencer’s “awareness levels were altered” because of the alcohol.

A medical examiner’s report indicated that Rory died from”asphyxia due to an unsafe sleep environment.”

Spencer remains behind bars on a $500,000 bond. Her next court date is scheduled for August 5.
