A man has been accused of throwing his newborn infant child into the Mississippi River, which is famously known for having an alligator population residing within.

Now the reason behind his horrific actions is coming to light.

28-year-old Brandon Isabelle has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and neglect, as well as aggravated kidnapping. Isabelle has been accused of shooting and killing his girlfriend before he threw his newborn child into the Mississippi River.

He appeared before the court on September 23rd, where he was indicted for the murders of Danielle Hoyle, 27, and their baby, Kennedy Hoyle.

He has pleaded not guilty to all the charges leveled against him. The jury which was finalized for his upcoming trial consists of 10 women and four men.

The prosectution has stated that Isabelle and the late Danielle both worked as FedEx employees and were involved in a sexual relationship with one another which led to Danielle becoming pregnant.

Attorney Dru Carpenter claims that Isabelle was simultaneously dating another FedEx employee who is said to have wanted to end the relationship with him because of the baby.

Danielle gave birth to baby Kennedy on January 31, 2022. She was released from the hospital when she was allegedly asked to meet Isabelle in Whitehaven.

According to the prosecution, the reason for this was to give her baby clothes which turned out to be a lie. They claim he lured her to Sedgwick Street and Levi Road before he fatally shot her in the head and proceeded to take the baby with him.

After this, he allegedly drove to the Mud Island Ramp and threw his two-day-old daughter in the river which is infested with alligators.

The reason for this being that he did not want a child, something he admitted to himself last month, during a status conference.

Isabelle was seen on video admitting to investigators that he killed his girlfriend and threw the baby into the river because he did not want her. Police later said that Isabelle allegedly confessed to the murders.

Officer Cody Sutton found Danielle’s body outside of her car. He told the court that he had seen blood on the driver’s seat and then found the woman’s body in a ditch near the vehicle.

Sergeant Jeramy Cline, for the Memphis Police Department in the Homicide Bureau also stated that he went to Danielle’s mother’s house who then gave them her Apple watch.

Cline stated that as he went through old messages, he saw a screenshot of a text message conversation where Isabelle asked Danielle to have the baby aborted.

Baby Kennedy’s body is not recovered as yet.

Isabelle was quickly identified as a suspect in 2022 and subsequently arrested. Prosecutors have said that they have DNA, video, and testimonial evidence for both counts of murder to prove that he is guilty.

Danielle’s mother, April Campbell also testified that she found out about her daughter’s relationship with Isabelle in 2021 and she was not supportive of the pair.

“I said, ‘If he’s married, how do you think he’s going to treat you? If he’s not even treating his wife right, how’s he going to treat you right?’” she said.
