Woman charged in child's death to undergo mental evaluation

A 22-year-old Shawano woman has been ordered to seek a mental evaluation. She had been charged with neglect in relation to the death of her two-month-old son. Catherine Barker was scheduled to have her preliminary hearing Tuesday. Instead it was postponed so Barker could meet with psychologist and undergo a mental competency exam before the next court date. Court records say police arrived at a home in Shawano where they found a 2-month-old baby dead in a small bassinet. Barker has not been charged with homicide.
