A judge issued the ruling Tuesday during a court hearing that Nakira Griner was due to attend. But her lawyer said that appearing at the hearing would have been detrimental to Griner's health because she's suffering from a severe form of postpartum depression.
The 24-year-old Bridgeton woman is charged in the death of 23-month-old Daniel Griner Jr.
Cumberland County prosecutors have said she initially reported that her son had been abducted on Feb. 8 and an intensive search was launched by law enforcement. But the child's remains were found the next day in the yard of Griner's home.
