Rosa Maria Da Cruz has gone on trial for repeated acts of violence against a minor causing severe development problems, according to a court official at the Palais de Justice in the French city Tulle. Ms Cruz was reportedly in denial about having a fourth child and hid her pregnancy from her husband and three other children, raising the girl, called Serena, in a basement and car boot. The little girl was discovered in 2013 when garage mechanics investigated noises coming from the boot.

Denis Latour, a mechanic at Terrasson garage, told broadcaster France Info: "I discovered this little girl in the bottom of the trunk, naked, next to a rotten cradle, disgusting. I jumped back so much the smell was strong.”
In the report, the mechanics confirmed that a smell “evocative of putrefaction" was wafting out of the passenger compartment.
Alongside the child were two small plastic toys, a pacifier and a bottle filled with fermented milk, the report said.
Mr Latour added when firefighters left with the toddler, the mother was in the police car, and he went to talk with her through the window to tell her “know that tonight, we may have saved your daughter’s life” to which she replied “Thank you, sir”.

Another mechanic, Guillaume Iguacel, commented on Ms Cruz’s composure on the day her secret was ousted.
He said: ”She was smoking her cigarette, she looked relaxed, not frantic, nothing, calm, calm.”
Ms Cruz now faces up to 20 years in prison.
Serena, who was also deprived of food and care, is now seven years old and lives is in special care with what could be irreversible health problems.

太荒唐了！法國科雷茲省(Corrèze)1名今年50歲的女子克魯絲(Rosa-Maria Da Cruz)，已有3個小孩的她，隱瞞家人偷偷產下一名女嬰，就這樣把她藏在環境髒亂的轎車後車廂，「養育」了2年，所幸女童後來有被人發現，但當時她全身赤裸又十分虛弱地躺在糞便中，令人不捨。而她的母親本月11日出庭受審，因被控「使用暴力對待未成年人士，導致其永久殘障」，遭判刑20年。
根據外媒報導，克魯茲2011年生下女嬰後，竟然把女兒當「東西」養在後車廂裡，直到2013年她將車子送去工廠維修，被技師發現，整件事才因此曝光。技師拉圖爾(Denis Latour)表示，無意間聽到後車箱裡傳出聲響，沒想到！打開後卻驚見一名女嬰，不但全身赤裸且周圍充滿糞便和蛆，整個環境散發出刺鼻的惡臭，他趕緊報警逮捕克魯絲。
報導中也提到，克魯絲的男友對於她的懷孕與藏嬰過程，都表示完全不知情。而克魯茲出庭時，還強辯女兒不是一個嬰兒，只是一個「活著的東西」，最後被判入獄20年，不過因為診斷出她有嚴重精神障礙，目前已接受治療。而小女嬰現在已經約7歲，在寄養家庭中健康長。

A French woman has gone on trial accused of hiding the existence of a child she kept in the boot of her car.
The girl was discovered by a garage mechanic who heard noises when the car was brought in for repairs.
The mother is charged with repeated violence against a minor causing permanent disability, and faces up to 20 years in prison.
She is said to have hidden the pregnancy and birth from her partner and three older children.
Media captionThe baby was discovered in the boot of a car back in 2013
Rosa-Maria Da Cruz, who is being tried in the central city of Tulle, called the baby Serena and kept her in a room in her house and in the boot of her car.
When she was found in 2013 in Terrasson-Lavilledieu in the Dordogne region, the child, who was thought to be about two years old, was malnourished and displaying severe developmental problems, reports say.
The garage mechanic who discovered the girl said he was greeted by an unpleasant smell when he opened the boot to discover a pale, feverish child, lying naked in her own excrement.
Portuguese-born Ms Da Cruz, who is now 50, is said to have told investigators about her daughter at the time: "Not a baby but a thing (...), a thing that had to be discovered to live", a child "to whom she started talking at the age of 18 months, because she had smiled [to her]".
The girl, who is now nearly seven, is in foster care.
Her two brothers and sister, aged nine to 15, were returned to the couple after being placed in foster care for a time.
The case against Ms Da Cruz's partner, who denied knowing anything about the pregnancy or the baby, has been dismissed.
The trial is expected to last between five and seven days.
