DALLAS - A custody hearing is set for this afternoon for a one-year-old Dallas girl whose mother was arrested after the baby's throat was cut.

Danielle Busby admitted to slashing the throat of her only child last month in a 911 call, police said.

Mariah Busby was released from the hospital last week. The court awarded temporary custody to Child Protective Services.

Relatives are now petitioning to take care of the child.
