Hallucinating Michigan mother going through heroin withdrawal claims SpongeBob ordered her to butcher her three-year-old daughter
- Justine Johnson, 22, allegedly stabbed her three-year-old daughter, Sutton Mosser in September
- The infant's death came two days after her third birthday
- She was found by Johnson's 17-year-old brother in a black trash bag
- Johnson, who had been hallucinating before allegedly murdering her daughter, was a heroin consumer
- She was told by SpongeBob to take her Mosser's life or that he would kill her, after she had contemplated suicide
A drug-addled Michigan mother charged with killing her own three-year-old daughter has claimed that SpongeBob ordered her to commit the unthinkable act or that she would face death herself.
Justine Johnson, 22, is accused of stabbing Sutton Mosser several times on September 16, two days after the toddler's third birthday, before placing her body into a black trash bag following weeks of heroin consumption.
The young mom from Oscada Township, about 200 miles north of Detroit, was charged with felony murder and first-degree child abuse.
Sutton's body was found by the suspect's 17-year-old brother, who was told to 'mind your own f***ing business,' when he asked about his niece's whereabouts, according to a court hearing from September.
'She told me that she didn't remember the specifics of what happened at the time of what happened to Sutton, that she was experiencing hallucinations due to heroin withdrawal and not sleeping for approximately two weeks,' said Ryan Eberline, an investigator with Child Protective Services.
'She was getting hallucinations from the TV that had instructed her to take her daughter's life or they would kill her.
'It was SpongeBob who was saying these things on the TV,' Eberline added. 'If she didn't do what she did to her daughter they would kill her. She said she was afraid for her life and she had lost her mind.'
Johnson, who was deemed fit to stand trial, is due back in court for a pre-trial hearing on February 28. She remains in jail without bail until then.
Justine Johnson, 22, was arrested after allegedly stabbing her three-year-old daughter Sutton Mosser on September 16, hours after her teen brother said she had seen her do drugs

On the night of Sutton's death, Johnson had left her home that she shared with her two brothers. Her teen sibling also went out before returning to an empty home at around 10 p.m.
Her older brother, Knelsey, who had left for work earlier in the day at around 2:30 p.m., returned home at 3:30 a.m., and had asked his younger brother where Sutton and his sister were.
The teen, who remains anonymous for legal reasons, said he had seen Johnson taking drugs earlier in the day. He then went outside to look and found the trash bag with what seemed to be a child's foot sticking out, he testified in court last year.
'There was like a foot sticking out of the bag,' he said. 'I ran up and told Knesley, "'There's a foot in a bag." He didn't believe me. He thought I was joking.'
The two brothers proceeded to call police after the shocking discovery.
Investigators found blood stains on a hallway closet door, and on couches in the living room and in a bedroom at the crime scene. Three knives were also found in the same bedroom.
The infant had stab wounds to her neck, chest and abdomen. She was wrapped in a comforter inside the trash bag that also had a pair of jeans with blood stains on them.
Eberline testified that Johnson had told him on October 1 that she had left her home to go to her mother's house, before passing out at a nearby graveyard.
Later, she went back to her own apartment, on Cedar Lake Road, and attempted to commit suicide before killing her child.
The infant was found with multiple stab wounds to her chest. Her body had been found in a trash bag along with a pair of bloody jeans
Johnson, who was hallucinating at the time of her daughter's death, had been told by SpongeBob on TV to take her daughter's life or that she would be killed
