US former teacher, her boy found dead

A former city school teacher and her four-year-old son have been found dead in Harlem, New York City, officials say.

On Monday, police found Felicia Barahona, 36, lying on the living room floor of her apartment with an electrical cord wrapped around her neck.

Barahona's son, Miguel, who was fired in 2012 after she was impregnated by an 18-year-old student, was found drowned in the bathtub.

Miguel is believed to be the child she had with the student, police sources said.

“The death of the baby is very, very, very sad,” said the victim’s friend Bierca Rodriguez, 44.

“She always takes care of the baby. She’s a good mommy. I don’t know what happened but she was always working,” said another neighbor.

Police arrived at the scene after receiving a call by a resident who reported a foul odor coming from the apartment.

Officials have not clarified if it was a murder-suicide or whether the two were the victims of foul play, but the city Medical Examiner is set to conduct an autopsy of Barahona and Miguel to determine the cause of death.

Barahona wrote that she had earned a physics degree at Buffalo state university in 2011, an MS in Science Education with Lehman College, and a BS in Chemistry from City College.

In a statement Monday, the Administration for Children's Services, said, “We are deeply committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our city’s children. We understand the NYPD is currently investigating this matter.”
