GALLIPOLIS - A Bidwell woman faces aggravated murder charges in connection with the death of her infant son.

Chasity Mandeville, 25, 345 Eagle Road, was arrested on Thursday following a grand jury indictment for the aggravated murder of her 4-month-old son, Noah Mandeville. The grand jury met Wednesday.

Noah was pronounced dead at Cabell Huntington Hospital after the Gallia County EMS and Gallia County sheriff's deputies responded to a Sept. 21 call that the infant was unresponsive.

The infant was first transported to Holzer Medical Center and later transferred to the Huntington hospital.

Following his death, the infant's body was taken to the Montgomery County Coroner's Office in Dayton on Gallia County Coroner Dr. Daniel H. Whiteley's orders. Following the preliminary autopsy results, a criminal investigation ensued that ultimately resulted in the indictment.

Mandeville was found indigent and the court appointed Gallipolis attorney James Henry to her defense.

She remains in the Gallia County Jail on a $1 million ten percent secured bond, which must be in cash before she is released.

A trial date has not been set and the investigation is still ongoing.

Anyone with information regarding the case can contact sheriff's Detective Chad Wallace at (740) 446-4614.
