On this Date in Minnesota History: August 4

August 4, 2003 – Suffering from postpartum depression and hearing voices that told her to kill her baby, Villanova University history professor Dr. Mine Ener succumbed to her psychosis on this date, slitting the throat of her 6-month-old daughter Raya Donagi. Ener and her daughter were visiting Ener’s parents in St. Paul at the time.

Raya had Down syndrome and often needed to use a feeding tube. Ener told police she “did not want the child to go through life suffering” with her disability.

On Aug. 30, 2003, Ener committed suicide in a Ramsey County jail day-room by smothering herself with a plastic trash bag.
