Instagram influencer De’jah Laneé is speaking out from jail, where she is serving a 30-day sentence on a child endangerment charge. Laneé is best known as baseball player Tim Anderson’s baby mama.
Laneé was arrested in April 2024 for speeding with at least one of her children in the car. She was charged with fleeing or eluding police, driving with a revoked license, and endangering the health of a child.
In a candid video, Laneé revealed she was offered two options by the DA: complete 300 hours of community service while keeping the child endangerment charge or serve 30 days in jail to have the charge removed.
She chose the 30 days in jail to have the charge removed. Despite being in jail – and away from her three kids – Laneé insists she’s a good mother.
“I ain’t never in my life put none of my kids in harm’s way,” she said in the video. Laneé added that fleeing the police was motivated by “fear”.
She also addressed her critics on social media: “Don’t play with me and my parenting. Don’t play with my kids, period.”
Laneé gave birth to a son in October 2022. She went viral when she accused Tim Anderson of fathering the boy. She posted a photo of her baby bump on Instagram and taunted Anderson’s long-suffering wife, Bria.
Laneé was actually the second woman to come forward claiming to be Anderson’s side piece.
Tim and Bria attended the MLB All-star game with their two kids on July 19, 2022 in Los Angeles. They have been married since 2017.
In a moment of humility, Bria acknowledged that her husband has a loose zipper problem. But she said they were working on their marriage.
She wrote in a post, “Moment of authenticity – I know we’re all on social media, but there’s a distinction between the internet and real life. In REAL life, I am a mother and a WIFE that cares about my FAMILY above anything else.”
“My truth is that my husband and I are working on our marriage, and I’m not interested in the internet games,” she continued. “I ask for everyone to respect my family’s privacy.”
