I would never do anything to purposefully hurt my daughter. And I know that. Only monsters would do it on purpose. A young mom sits in the interview room after her daughter dies at her home, and police tried to get to the truth. I would never do anything hurt and laid her down, covered her up. Went out there and checked on her like I always do. We go through the tragic death of Octavia Bone and how detectives slowly broke down her mother page

and where the case stands now. Welcome to Crime Fix. I'm Annionette Levy. Octavia Bone didn't live to see her third birthday. She was a little girl who was loved by so many in her family. She loved the color pink, singing and dancing. She loved watching Peppa the Pig and eating cheese puffs. Her obituary described her as a cuddler who had a special place in the heart of her grandpa and her aunt was her favorite person. But the person who was supposed to love and protect Octavia more than. than anyone else failed her and caused her death. Octavia's short life came to an end on November 7th, 2024. The scene was a modest trailer at the Memory Lane Mobile Home Park in Sturgis, Michigan, a small town near the Indiana State line about two and a half hours from Detroit. Page Bone, who was 21 years old at the time, lived there with her two-year-old daughter, Octavia, her four-year-old son and several other family members.

On the morning of November 7th, something went terrible. wrong inside that trailer. What exactly happened would take months to uncover, but now we have what was captured in a police interrogation room on video that shows what Bone told police when the cameras were rolling. But first, there was a 911 call. Central County 911, where is your emergency? Breathing. You are here any breathing at all. They're here now. First responders arrived at the memory lane mobile home park, but it was too late. Two-year-old Octavia Bone was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators spoke with Bone that day.

She told them she had been awake all morning, making food, taking a shower, moving around the trailer. But detectives say her timeline didn't match with what another family member told them. They also noted prior signs of neglect, including severe diaper rashes documented in photos. And inside the home, they found something else, a dent in the drywall about the size of a child's head with hair still stuck in it. Then came the autopsy. The medical examiner determined that Octavia died from suffocation.

She also had a large amount of melatonin in her system nearly three times the peak adult dose. But prosecutors say the melatonin didn't kill her. They alleged bone forced her daughter's face into a couch cushion until she stopped moving. For hours, detectives pressed Bone about what happened that morning and that interrogation was captured on video and it would become a critical piece of the case. From the very beginning, Pagebone tries to paint a picture of a normal morning. She tells detectives about the night before, about dinner, about putting Octavia to bed. Last night for dinner, we had like this chicken and noodle stuff. I don't know what the name of it is.

And then she ate her dinner, or we all ate our dinner. And then we sat down and we watched a movie, put her to sleep at about 9, 30, 10 o'clock. That's what time she usually lays down. and then seeing my boyfriend laid down and watched a movie we went to sleep around 5 o'clock this morning

she woke up she was doing her little crying stuff like she usually doesn't when she wakes up and then I woke her up I changed or got her up not woke her up changed her butt

and then I laid her back down but she didn't go back to sleep until about 9, 30, 10 o'clock and then I made something to eat, took a little shower, and then I sat on the front porch too. And then when I was going to the bathroom, it was when my uncle came and got me. Okay. I'm going to tell me about that?

About what? Yeah, when you came and got you? Oh, he hollered my name, and then my cousin came back. She knocked down the door. I was using the toilet, so I hurried up and got off the toilet and ran out there to see what was the matter. Mm-hmm. And what was the matter? She wasn't breathing.

start building the timeline. They ask about Octavia's sleeping habits, where she slept, how she slept, and Paige tells them her daughter always slept on her stomach. The detective also asks about medications, and Paige mentioned something that will become a key part of the case, melatonin. And how does she typically sleep? Like what's her favorite position to sleep in? She usually likes to sleep on her stomach. That's just always been her thing, I guess. Yeah. And then Where do you sleep at? We have, me and my boyfriend have an air mattress we blow up and we lay it right by the couch. Okay.

Okay. And then, you said she's watching Bluey. Yeah. For how long? For, I don't know, from five until she fell asleep. Okay. Which was, what time was that? Five o'clock when she woke up and about 9, 30, 10 o'clock when she went back to sleep.

Okay. All right. And then what did you do? You said you made something to eat? Yeah, I made something to eat, took a shower, just sat on the front porch for a minute. And then I went back in to use the bathroom, and that's when my uncle came around me. Okay. Any medications in the house? No. She takes malotone to help her sleep, but she only gets two at night.

And she didn't have any today? No, she didn't. No? Who usually gives that to her? Me. You do? No. And where do you get the melatonin from?

From Mr. It's like a child, child melatonin or, okay. It usually works for her pretty good. Yeah, because she likes to fight her sleep. Does she? Yeah, all the time. Has that been something that she's always done? Or is that just because of the terrible twos?

That's always been a her thing. Yeah. But as the interview goes on, the detective drops a bombshell. He's already talked to Paige's uncle. And the officer says their stories simply don't match. So I know in situations like this, right, this is a very tragic event, lots of stress, lots of emotions, lots of things going through your mind. The biggest thing that can hinder an investigation and us finding out what happened to us is when someone doesn't tell us everything that has been. happened or they try and say you know tell us something that they think we want to hear

so we've done other interviews today already okay and some of the things in the other interviews for people who are at the trailer aren't lining up with what you're telling me what do you mean what I mean is we've talked to right who was in and out. Yeah. So we went through his timeline with him numerous times. Timeline does not match your timeline. Chris, Chris, about watching while you went and took a shower.

Anything about doing laundry? I told him I was taking a shower. I told her he still sleeping, can you keep an eye on her for a minute while I have him in a quick shower? He didn't mention that to us at all. Are you sure that was this morning? Yes, that was this morning. Why do you?

Do you think you wouldn't tell us that? I don't know. He was sitting on his bed in his bedroom. When I stepped in and I said, She's still sleeping. Can you watch her for a second just while I take a shower? And he said, yeah, that's fine. Go ahead.

You know, that didn't come up when we were talking with him. Do you find him to be a reliable person? I... What do you mean sometimes? I don't know. Just like family drawn on in the past. Like what? Just, I don't know.

Why is an accusation as all types of stuff? Against you or other family members? No, other family members. Okay. Like them just not getting along. So don't know why Kro- Tell us about you going to take a shower and him doing laundry? Oh.

Okay. If you said that you were laying on the air mattress every time he came in and out of the trailer? No. First couple times maybe. After I had gotten her back to sleep, but after that I got up and I got around for the day. and cleaned up, took a shower, did what I did.

Okay, and you're saying, I've been moving around, and you were interacting with them and talking to me. Yeah, we were talking all morning after I had gotten up out of bed. Okay, so I guess what we need to figure out is who is not telling us an accurate story. Is it you, or is it a combination of maybe the two of you are misremembering things a little bit? I said everything that happened.

The detective keeps pressing. He points out the obvious. Kids don't just die. And Octavia had slept on that couch before in the same position, and she was fine. So what was different this time? Kids just don't die. Obviously. Right?

And you've said yourself that she slept on that couch for a week and a half in the same position. Didn't die. So what is different now? What happened? No, that's what we're all trying to figure out. Right. And we need people to be honest about it. Because when we find out what happened to her, when she has an autopsy tomorrow morning,

and we find whatever the pathologist is going to find, and you're going to tell us that nothing happened, it's going to be a different story. I'm not saying anything didn't happen. I'm saying we're trying to figure out what happened to her. So what did happen? I laid her down for her nap. I said, I think because she likes to sleep on her stomach, She could have like tucked her head in at some point.

Was there a pillow there? No, just her blanket. But she likes to sleep with her face like in the pouch sometimes. So she could have done that. Okay. So do you think she suffocated? That's the only thing I can think of. Did you suffocate her?

No. I have to ask. I wouldn't do that to my kid. I love that little girl. Then why would you hurt her? I didn't hurt her. Someone hurt her I did not hurt my daughter

and you're not going to sit here and tell me I did Then why are there so many inconsistencies From your story to recollection of this In the very same morning I'm telling you everything that happened sir So the picture that you drew over here Was detects surgeon on and you said that this is the blanket line here Yeah

Is this how she was when you checked on her When you put your hand on her back Yes Okay You sure it was there? Yes. It wasn't over her head. Oh, it was right here.

Okay. And when you went in and checked on her and found her unresponsive, where was it at? My uncle had taken an offer, so it was off. Okay, so when your uncle found her or checked on her, where was the blanket at? It was down here at the other end. No, not once he took it off. When he went and to actually check on her. Oh, it was still right here.

Okay, because he said it was completely covering her head. No, it was right here. And her shoulders and her head were both poking out. She was laying there. Completely opposite of what she said. Why would I, she didn't have her head coverage. He said that's how she likes to sleep. He said he sees her like that frequently.

He said he saw her like that multiple times this morning. He told us every time he saw her, her entire body was covered up. And I'm telling you. Do you think she covered herself up? She could have. Did she? Obviously. Obviously what?

Did she what? Did she cover herself up? No. When I came back out, it was still right here. When I went to get in the shower, it was right there. The detective shifts tactics. He starts asking questions that attack her character calling into question whether Bone was actually a good mother. Are you a good mother?

Yeah, I know. You take care of your daughter? I do. So she never goes to friend's houses when a terrible diaper. And if someone told me that, wouldn't they be telling you? You need a lie? Terrible diaper rash. The only person she goes to is her aunts, and that's not very often.

And who? Her aunt Tabitha. Okay. So Tabitha's never talked to you about her terrible diaper rash or getting her cream or... Oh, she's had a diaper rash once, yeah, because when I lived at my parents' house, they would give her milk, and they know she's lactose tolerant. So that's why her ass broke out. Okay. And how many times do you think that would be, estimate?

Well, it happened quite a few times because my parents don't listen to me. So why would you take your daughter back to your parents' house and if they don't live there? What am I supposed to do with on the street? No. So if you're living at your parents' house and you have to be there, why would she be at our aunt's house? Because her aunt comes to pick her up so she can visit her? So if her aunt told us that every time she picked her up, she had a terrible diaper rash, would she be lying? She didn't have a terrible diaper rash every time she picked her up.

That only happened a couple times. because of what I just said, she can't drink milk. So she's lactose intolerant? Yes. Because we interviewed Tabitha. Okay. And she told us that every time she picked her up, she had a terrible diaper. Oh, she did.

She said she talked to you about it multiple times. She has pictures of it. And I took care of it multiple times. She has butt cream and everything. The last time that happened was when I lived at my parents' house. She doesn't get milk anymore. There's nobody to give it to her. See, Paige, a lot of these things aren't adding.

out. That's the problem. You get a completely different story from your friends and family than from you. If it was off a little bit, I get that, right? But it is completely different, and that doesn't happen. So that means we have a problem. So if there's some things that you want to go back and readdress with us, we're more than happy to listen. That's what we're here for. But we need you to tell us. I've told you from the end to the beginning. When the detective poses a direct question, does Paige think that this was an accident? He makes it clear, one way or another, they are going to find out exactly how Octavia died. I think it was an accident.

What happened today? Not on purpose. I didn't hurt. Did you give her a little bit too much melatonin? No, she only gets to every night. But if she woke up today and you wanted her to go back to sleep, I didn't give her any... And she wouldn't.

She said no. I didn't give her any no if I'm going to say. Because part of the autopsy is toxicology. I understand. Right? And they're going to find out what's in her stomach. And, I mean, they're going to find out what happened. I know.

Okay? Whether it was an overdose, whether she suffocated, if she was shaken to death, whatever, whatever happened to her, We're going to find out. I understand that. And you want us to, right?

You want us to find out what happened. Of course, I want to know. Okay? So when we find out what happened to her, and all the questions that we have are going to be answered from that, and we're asking you right now, those same questions that you can't answer, or you won't answer.

Okay. Not really. You're giving us an answer, but it's not the right one. It's not the truth. There's a lot of weight right now. I can see it. Okay?

You've lost your daughter. What happened wasn't intentional. Obviously not. Okay, well, it's not obvious. It is. If it was obvious, we wouldn't be talking. Parents, they get frustrated with their kids. Everybody does.

Right? You've got a year old, you know. Okay. But sometimes it gets a little too hard. And parents do things that they aren't thinking about at the time. And they can't help it. It happens, and afterwards it's too late. I think that happened today.

All I did was lay her down for her nap and cover her up like I always do. Right. But you laid her down in a certain way that killed her. How? That's what we're asking you. She sleeps on her stomach every night. Right, but she hasn't died the other nights. That's why we're trying to figure out what happened.

Right. So you're the last person that put her to sleep? Obviously, I'm her mother. Right. Lanked her down, covered her up, she went to sleep. She then makes a key admission, not to hurting her daughter, but to the fact that something about that morning was different. She acknowledges the blanket was over Octavia's head, and admits this time wasn't exactly like all of the others.

So tell me about when you put her down. I remember like I usually do. Did you use the blanket to smother her? No, I would not do that. You push her head into the cushion? No, I wouldn't do that. No, but it can happen. I did not do that.

Then what happened? I told you, all I did was lay her down and cover her up. I can usually do. But there was something different this time. There was something that was a little different this time that was different from all the other times that you've done that with her. Am I right? I guess so because something happened.

Right. And that's what I'm trying to figure out. I understand. You didn't do that, whatever happened, you didn't do it on purpose. Never. Never. Never. She was your baby girl.

Okay? You would never do it on purpose. But something was different this time for whatever reason. And that caused her little heart to stop beating. Whatever that little thing was is what we're trying to figure out. There's nothing you did on purpose. Accidents happen. You know that.

So tell me what was different this time. Now when I covered her up like I usually do, I checked on her. like I always do a couple of times when I checked on her. Sometimes she'll pull the blanket over her head, but whenever I checked on her, I always pull it back off. Okay. And how many times did you check on her today when the blanket was over her head? Several times.

Several times. Okay. And that was already after you laid her down. After it? What do you mean? Like you said that you had laid her down? Oh, yeah. Right?

And that she wouldn't go to sleep right away. And you had put the blanket, right? kind of like over her shoulders. Yeah. Right? Um, and then at some point the blanket came over her head. Yeah, because sometimes she'll just throw it over her face because she doesn't like the light in her eyes and it was obviously daylight out so the light was bothering her. Gotcha. Okay. Do you think blanket suffocating her? That's what I'm thinking happened. Yeah? Did you put the blanket over her like that? No, I didn't.

Can you look at me in? Tell me that? No, I'm doing it. You didn't do it on purpose. I never. And she could talk like we were talking. I asked her what happened. What would she say?

The same thing that I said. She would say that mommy put me to sleep. Yes. But it was a little different this time. It wasn't different. But you said it was a little different this time. And I asked you what was different this time about it? Oh, when she threw the blanket over her head.

Okay. tell us. The mommy laid me down. Yeah, she was always throwing the blanket over her head. That was, she didn't like the light in her face. Okay. What happened to her? There's not going to be any more chances for you to tell us the story. I told you what happened. I know that's what you're telling us, okay? But what you're telling us and what we're going to find out the truth is, and if those things aren't going to match up, that's not good. The detective appeals to her further as a mother trying to get her to open up more about what really happened. You're almost there.

That little bit that you just told me, I could see it in your eyes that it made you feel just a little bit better. But there's still some, there's some things in there that you need to tell. I believe it was the blanket, right? And she was fighting you because she didn't want to go to sleep. Again, you didn't mean to do it. And she, would she say, mommy, because I didn't want to go to sleep. Yeah, that's what she did.

And mommy, what else did mommy do? Nothing. I mean, I smacked around the butt a couple times, not like hard just to her enough to where she could feel it, you know. And it was time to chill out. Okay. Thank you. See that spanking, we asked earlier about it if you did and you said no. I know, I just...

These things that were telling you that we know what happened? and you don't want to tell us because you're scared, you're in pain, but you can't start to heal until you help us figure out what exactly happened. I think we can all agree at this point that you didn't do this intentionally. I can see it right now. It's horrible that it happened. Horrible. there's nothing that we can do to bring her back. Okay?

But there's a way that we can help her memory of that little angel. Because we can't let her down like that. After hours of denials and half-truths, Paige Bone finally admits what she did, telling detectives that she held her crying two-year-old down by the neck and upper back, pressing her into the couch until she stopped. moving.

About every half-truths. No more forgetting. That's how you help her. That's how to help you get that guilt out of it. Never wanted this. No, you didn't. But it happened. But we have to get that guilt out of you.

You didn't do it on purpose. That just so she would stay still. But it wasn't very long. She knows that you didn't try to hurt her. She knows you wouldn't do that. on purpose. Different things. Ready to tell me what,

like the real story now. From the beginning. She woke up and stayed there and watched her TV for a little bit. And then when she started crying, I just made her lay down and held it her for a second. And I thought it would be fine. Like,

I was like, like, I held her like right here and like right here. Just so she would lay down and stop moving so she would go to sleep. So if, obviously, this is not her size, but if this was her back and her head is here, show me what you're talking about.

Her head here? Yeah. Okay, so like right like this. Okay. So you were just basically like, this is her neck and her upper back? Yeah, just like holding her down. You're just holding her down?

So she would go to sleep. Okay. And then... Because she likes to kick around and stuff when she's going to sleep and I wanted to kick herself off the damn couch. Sure. Okay. And do you think that it was about a minute that you held her like that?

Yeah, not even that. Okay. And what was happening at that time that you were doing that to her? She was just still crying like she always does. And then at what point did she stop crying? Um... It was like not long before I let go, maybe like, like, five, ten seconds. Five or ten seconds?

I thought she had just wanted to sleep. Did you try to wake her up? No, because I thought she was just sleepy. Okay. At what point did you know something was wrong? When my uncle called me out there, and I, it seemed she was purple. Okay. When you were holding her down, did you feel anything?

No. Anything you break or pop or? No. Thank you for being honest. You will. It helps me in order to understand, right? So I can help you. This is only about 21.

But here's the thing. Even after admitting to holding her down, Paige insists she thought her daughter was still breathing. She didn't actually check. She just assumed. Okay. You said that you checked on. Yeah. And you said that you saw her breathing. Yes. She was warm. Everything was fine. She was warm. But did you, did she, she didn't make any noises? No. So I thought she was just asleep. She usually doesn't make a peep. She's asleep.

Okay. When we asked if, if you saw her breathing, like her chest or her back, rising up down. Did you see that? Well, the blanket was over her, but I thought I did. It looked like it was moving. Okay. Well, you earlier when I asked you and you said,

yep, and I saw it, now you're saying, I didn't see it. I thought I did, but the blanket was on her. So you couldn't say for sure. And it wasn't until after your uncle came home with your cousin that he checked

on her on the studio and saw, that she something was in the bathroom okay and then what

what did he do next he got on the phone and you called my aunt Tiffany and then

he told my cousin to come back and get me and then what did you do I ran out there immediately did you do

anything else well I just ran straight out there who called that one I did so that's just one thing

like I knew you you did, but I want to ask you if there's anything else that you did. So that's one thing. Maybe you just, you forgot. But I have to make sure that when we're telling the truth, right? Like, Becca, we are, that there's not things that you are forgetting about or not telling me. I understand. Okay.

So everything that you've said so far at this point after we're being honest is the truth. Yes, sir. Okay. No way did you ever want to do this to her? No. Never. Paige, I'm proud of you for telling us the truth. I'm sorry. I was scared.

We understand that. And I didn't mean to be mean. Like I said, I was freaking out. But then another bombshell. The detective tells Paige he just got off the phone with the evidence technicians at the house. And they found a dent in the wall with Octavia's hair still in it, something Paige never brought up. And again, we're being, we're still being honest. right

and this is the only way that this works is if we're honest because you don't want to hide things anymore okay there's more that happened than what you told me okay because I just got off the phone

with some of my evidence technicians at the house and they told me about some things that I'm very concerned about things that you forgot maybe to tell me about maybe that happened to you. What do you mean? Like, did you throw her?

No, I would never throw her. Did you push her? No, I didn't push her. Alright, well, there's something that happened to her that caused a dent in drywall that has her hair in it. What? Yeah. What are you talking about?

That, I'm talking about that. But what do you mean drywall? Like whatever this wall is made of, whatever the wall that you have in that trailer, there's a dent from a child's head with her hair still in the dent. Her face is bruised. I didn't hit her on the wall? Then tell me what happened. I did tell you. But how do you explain that?

I did not hit her face on a wall. Did she hit it herself? She could have. She had fallen off the couch that morning. Like I said, she's always rolling off. So she did fall off the couch that morning? Yeah, she fell off the couch. Okay.

What end of the couch? She, like, rolled off the side. Okay, so we go back to our picture. This is the couch, right? And this is true, too, right? Yeah. You didn't lie about this? No.

Okay. So this is the couch, this is the TV. What end of the couch did she fall off at? Right here where she was sleeping. She rolled off right here. So she just rolled off here? Yeah. Okay.

And you're telling me again? Yes. And I got up. What? You got up and what? Checked on her. After she had fallen off, obviously. Well, that's not obviously because I wasn't there.

Page continues with her denials about the wall. Even as detectives press her, she sticks to her story. She held her down. She covered her head. But the wall, that didn't happen. A dent in the drywall with her daughter's hair still in it? Off the couch previously. Hey, just as what you want to avoid is you want to avoid having a pathologist say this is what they believe happened.

Because when they usually do that, it is a terrible sequence of events and a terrible occurrence. That it looks very, very bad. So if there's some Something Some type of accident You slipped You were going towards her Accidentally pushed her into the wall

She jumped into the wall She was trying to get away from you There was no wall Somehow her head Met that wall And her hair came Off her head It stuck on the wall

Nothing happened with the wall Has she fallen into the wall at some point Off of the couch? No she just fell off the couch this morning but not the wall side no the floor okay

this is your chance to continue to be honest with us and continue to tell us because once we get done talking here that time will have passed I'm being honest I'm telling you right but that's what you told us at the beginning of this interview and we found that that wasn't actually what was happening

I told you what happened I held her down to get her to go back to bed Right, but now we've found further things, so now we have to explain those. I didn't, there was no wall. There was no involvement with a wall. What about the TV stand? Not the TV stand either. The TV stands not even by that couch. Okay.

Aside from the floor that she fell onto from the couch, was there any other physical contact that you had with the area? that would have caused her to get hurt. She wasn't even near a wall. Forget about the wall, right? I'm asking if there's any point that you grabbed a hold of her and did something other than what you've already talked about. No.

I wouldn't do that? Not on purpose. I didn't do it at all. I just held her down so she would go to sleep. As the interview goes on, child protective services comes in. They need to verify the well-being. of Paige's other child, her four-year-old son, and they need a drug screen. When they ask when she last smoked marijuana, her answer lines up with the exact window. She says her daughter was napping.

Okay. Do you have any history of substance abuse? No. If you do a drug screen, will there be any substance? Marijuana, probably, but rather than that, nothing else. Is marijuana? Yes, ma'am. Okay. And then history of domestic violence with anyone? No. history of mental health diagnoses. No. No mental health diagnoses? Okay. Um, history. So that's just going to go over the top. That's not going to get enough to, what time do you think you smoked? I'm thinking like 10, 10.30. 10.30? Yeah, somewhere around there. Where were you outside? Where you smoked it? I was on the porch.

Okay. Then your daughter was inside? 10, 10.30 in the morning. That was the same time Paige said her daughter was sleeping on the couch, the same time she was supposed to be watching her. After just under three hours of interrogation, the detectives return. They have a search warrant, and they tell Paige Bone she's under arrest. This is Deputy, I'm sorry, Sergeant Brooks.
