Two of the five arrested in the death of Autumn Rose Wells were indicted on the felony charge of Manslaughter. Besides Payton Nicole Gann, Madison Jade McCalpin was also charged with directly causing the infant's death; however, she gave truthful information to the authorities.

The investigation revealed that Gann and McCalpin were the two in charge of the infants' room and had covered the sleeping Autumn with a blanket. Autopsy results indicated the child had been dead at least one hour before she was discovered. 

According to her online bio. McCalpin is a Red Bay native who graduated from Red Bay High School and who had previously worked at Subway, McDonald's, and the Cardinal Drive-In. As of this morning, Franklin County D.A. Joey Rushing has not commented on the the five indictments.
