Couple Accused Of Driving Dead Baby Across Country

INDIO, Calif. (AP) ― A man is accused of killing his baby daughter in a trailer park near Desert Hot Springs, then putting her in a trash bag and driving her body around the country.

Jason Hann, already convicted of killing his other infant, is now charged with murdering 2-month-old Montana in a fit of rage in 2001 in a trailer park near Desert Hot Springs.

Hann pleaded not guilty to murder Friday in Riverside County.

His wife Krissy had already pleaded not guilty to murder.

Prosecutors say Montana was killed in February 2001. The parents allegedly drove the body around the country before placing it in an Arkansas trailer. 

A man who bought the trailer found the infant's body in 2002.

Hann was extradited from Kentucky, where he was serving time for killing his 6-week-old son in 1999 in Vermont. Authorities say the couple traveled with that boy's body for 18 months.

Hann was being held at the Indio Jail without bail Friday.
