Police find child unattended, crying, in parked car
The Clarksville Police Department
One week after an infant girl was found dead, unattended in a parked vehicle, Clarksville Police experienced what could have been instant replay: they were lucky this time.
On July 13, at approximately 2:20 am, a five month old infant was found crying in a vehicle with the windows rolled up and doors locked on the lot of Chapala’s at 1191 Fort Campbell Blvd., by Officer Stephen Holman, who was there on an unrelated matter.
The parents were located inside the bar and it was determined that the infant had been left in the vehicle since approximately 11:00 pm. The child was placed in DCS custody. Both parents were booked into the Montgomery County Jail charged with Child Abuse / Neglect.
The parents charged in this case are the mother, Marleny Martinez ~ Amaya, 21 of 802 Sunny Ridge Circle, Dickson, Tennessee, and the father, Enrique Ramirez 28, also of 802 Sunny Ridge Circle, Dickson, Tennessee. Their bond was set at five thousand dollars each. Detective Kevin Shaw is the lead investigator.
Last week, Courtni Nichols of Palmyra was charged with first degree murder after her infant daughter was found dead in a car parked outside of Dodge’s Store on Fort Campbell Boulevard.
About Christine Anne Piesyk 
In my 40+ years in media, I have worked as feature writer, investigative reporter, editor, publisher, and film/theater/arts critic. I brought my liberal New England activism to Tennessee several years ago, having finally completed a mid-life undergraduate degree in community organizing and women's studies, and an MA in Interdisciplinary Arts with a concentration in Alzheimer's Disease. I served on Future Search Commissions for two colleges and on homelessness for the City of Northampton (MA), where I applied some of my undergrad work in urban planning and community development. I am a member of FreeThinkers for Peace and Civil Liberties. I am a certified storm spotter just because weather fascinates me. In my spare time (define spare time please?) I am a voracious reader, obsessive movie buff, ballroom dancer, and classical music junkie. I also create sci-fi/fantasy and renaissance costumes. I see life as an ongoing opportunity for learning and adventure (one current interest is mastering preparation of foods from India and Southeast Asia). My dream: a return trip to Machu Picchu. After all, the best things still to come. All posts by Christine Anne Piesyk as presented on Clarksville Online are copyright ©2006, 2007, 2008 to the author.
