UNION, Mo.-
The woman who authorities say slashed the throat of a young mother and then stole her baby was charged Wednesday with kidnapping and assault.
Franklin County prosecutor Robert E. Parks filed the charges against the woman authorities previously identified as Shannon Beck. Court documents name her as Shannon Torrez, 36, of Lonedell, but note that she is also known as Shannon Beck.
She was being held on $1 million bond.
