The Sock That Almost Killed a Baby : True Crime, Bipolar Disorder, Sasha Hunt, Insane Crimes

In today’s episode of Strawberry Ink, we unravel the harrowing case of Sasha Hunt — the Indiana mother accused of nearly killing her infant using a sock. Yes, a sock. Beneath the surface of suburbia, behind closed doors and filtered Instagram posts, something unthinkable was happening. How did it come to this? What drives a parent to such a quiet act of cruelty — and what signs were missed?

We walk through the timeline, the testimony, and the terrifying psychology behind one of the most unsettling domestic cases in recent memory. This is not just a story about child endangerment — it’s a story about how everyday objects can turn into weapons when wielded with malice or neglect.

And yes — as always, this episode is lovingly dedicated to kids everywhere who hate socks. I see you. I am you. I condone Crocs. I support flip-flops. Sandals? Yes. Shoes without socks? Absolutely. Wear them to school, to the grocery store, to your orthodontist appointment, thats what I do! Live free. Let your toes breathe, go outside completely barefoot too, I do all of that!

Because after this episode, you might never look at a sock the same way again.
