Two parents have been charged with murder in the death of their one-month-old in Tennessee.

Nashville-based WTVF has learned that Jason Ormonde and Colleen Delaney were arrested after being indicted by a grand jury.

Both have been charged with felony murder and aggravated child abuse in connection with death of their infant daughter.

According to Murfreesboro (Tenn.) Police officials, the infant suffered broken ribs and was found to be malnourished.

The child's crib, clothing and diapers also reportedly tested positive for methamphetamine.

Police said both parents have tested positive for the drug.

Ormonde and Delaney were booked into the Rutherford County Jail on a $500,000 bond each.
