SALEM – Dejaune Anderson, accused of killing her 5-year-old son Cairo Jordan, stuffing his body in a suitcase and tossing it in the woods, has filed six new motions.
On March 15, 38-year-old Dejaune Anderson was arrested in Arcadia, California, on charges including murder, neglect of a dependent resulting in death, and obstruction of justice.
In April 2022, a mushroom hunter found Cairo Ammar Jordan’s body. An autopsy found that the boy died from an electrolyte imbalance due to vomiting and diarrhea that led to dehydration. Investigators said Cairo died about a week or less before the mushroom hunter came upon the little boy’s body.
Anderson made several Facebook and Twitter posts between December 2021 and April 2022 saying she believed her son was a “demon who needed to be killed or exorcised.”
Anderson, who is Princess Califia Hatun Tupak Bey II, has been fighting to represent herself in court for months. Washington County Judge Larry Medlock will not allow her to do so until two Indiana doctors complete psychiatric evaluations to determine whether she is competent to stand trial. Judge Medlock ruled that he would not rule on her filings until the psychiatric assessment is completed and reports are filed, indicating Anderson is competent.
Despite Anderson’s resistance to the evaluations, new motions filed last week indicate that Dr. Stephanie Calloway and Dr. George Parker recently attempted to complete those exams.
In an affidavit filed to “decline psychiatric evaluation,” Anderson informed the court that she declined Parker’s exam on May 28 and chose to “remain silent.”
In another motion, Anderson reports that Calloway visited her on April 30.
“Calloway was presented with all filings by [me] due to Washington County Circuit Court only providing a few filings and not all presented for Dr. Calloway to evaluate,” Anderson wrote.
Anderson also filed a 5-page document outlining the “injustices” she faced at the Washington County Jail.
“I am appalled by the unethical treatment I have experienced within this jail,” she said. “It’s mind-blowing to be a healer and high priestess receiving visions of the trauma and negativity that fill this place as I have to, forced to interact with unethical, unintelligent life forms of humanity.”
Anderson claims to have been placed under “MK Ultra mind control” while at the jail, and “chemicals” have been placed in her food, and “hazardous materials” were placed in air vents to irritate her.
She claims that the court and Washington County Jail have shown bias against her and that she can’t receive a fair trial.
Anderson discusses spirituality and her worldviews, claiming that “Salem, Indiana is being controlled by unethical humanity.”
Anderson has also filed a motion requesting the U.S. Supreme Court dismiss her case, saying Washington County lacks jurisdiction.
On Thursday, Anderson filed a civil lawsuit against Washington County Circuit and Superior Court Clerk Stephanie K. Rockey, claiming she showed “gross negligence in performing her duties.”
Court records show Anderson has filed at least 31 documents since April 8. Clerk Rockey filed all of those promptly, some on the same day of receiving them or a day after.
Anderson remains at the Washington Jail without bond and will be in court for a pre-trial hearing on June 20 at 9:00 a.m.
