A mother, Amy Robertson has been charged with murdering her 12-year-old son, Caden  Berry after authorities found the boy dead inside his Keizer apartment Saturday.


Neighbor Brenda King told local station KGW that the 38-year-old came out of her apartment Saturday acting frantically. Robertson was allegedly swinging her arms wildly and said something about demons when she exited her apartment.

"I realized I didn’t see Caden, so I said, Where’s your son? In the house under the blanket," King told the network.

She said she went inside the apartment and saw Caden unresponsive. "I can’t even sleep because he was so young and so little," King said.

Caden was a seventh grade student at Claggett Creek Middle School, according to the police statement.

Robertson cooperated with investigators upon being taken into custody, according to police. She is being held without bail at Marion County Correctional Facility and will appear in court Tuesday at 3 p.m.
