MUNCHAUSEN MAMA POISONED 7 MTH-OLD BABY

WARPED
FOR more than a month baffled doctors tried to treat Bianca Montana's daughter as she suffered from a variety of different and potentially life threatening illnesses.
Then they realized the root of the problem - Montana herself.
In a warped bid for attention the 21-year-old from Tuscon, AZ, poisoned her seven-month-old nine times as she lay on the ward recovering.
According to documents filed in Arizona's Supreme Court, medics originally diagnosed her with E-Coli when she was first brought in.
But after they began to treat her, she developed an unknown infection despite their best efforts to make her well. 
Initially confused, staff became suspicious of the young mum after she set up blankets to block people's view of what she was doing and set up a hidden camera in the girl's bedroom.

Montana then blocked the metal box hiding the equipment with tissues, so they stopped her seeing the child altogether.
She immediately got well.
Montano was arrested and doctors believe she is suffering from Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, an illness found in women seeking attention who feign illnesses in themselves or their child.
The children are now with family members.
