Susanna Cox (1785–1809) was a young domestic servant in Berks County, Pennsylvania, convicted of murdering her illegitimate infant son. On the morning of February 17th, 1809, her employer found the baby's body in a rubbish bin behind his property. Susanna was immediately questioned, and while she admitted that the baby was hers, she insisted that it was stillborn. After a short investigation, she was convicted on April 7th, 1809. Her the court-appointed lawyers did little to defend her and no witnesses were called to testify on her behalf. After a short imprisonment in the local sheriff's home, she was executed in Reading on June 10th, 1809.
