The mother of a baby who was found stabbed and baked inside an oven has spoken out after her own mom was charged with the little girl's murder.

Royalty Marie Floyd was found dead in the oven at her grandmother's home in Shaw, Mississippi on Monday night.

Her grandmother, Carolyn Jones, 48, has been charged with first-degree murder.

Veronica Jones, the 20-month-old girl's mother, said she is still coming to terms with the fact her own mother is allegedly responsible.

Twenty-month-old Royalty Marie Floyd was found dead in the oven at her grandmother's home in Shaw, Mississippi on Monday night

'Royalty Marie Floyd was the best thing that ever happened to me. She's my one and only daughter. My first love,' she said.

Royalty's grandmother, Carolyn Jones, 48, has been charged with first-degree murder

Veronica said her daughter's death was 'the hardest thing that I ever had to go through in my life'.

'My heart has been ripped from my chest.

'I'm being told that my mother stabbed my daughter and baked her in the oven but my mother loved my daughter. She always treated Royalty like Royalty and everybody that knows us know that.'

Authorities say the little girl had been living with her grandmother.

Police were called on Monday night after Jones' brother came home to find Royalty's body in the heated oven.

Investigators are still trying to determine exactly when the girl died, as well as her cause of death, to see if she was already deceased before being placed in the oven.

The child's body has been sent to the state Crime Lab in Pearl for an autopsy.

Veronica Jones, the 20-month-old girl's mother, said she is still coming to terms with the fact her own mother is allegedly responsible

The grieving mother said her 20-month-old daughter's death was 'the hardest thing that I ever had to go through in my life'

'I've been doing law enforcement for 25 or 26 years now. This is one of the most horrible things I've seen in doing law enforcement. The hardest part... is to see a child victim,' Bolivar County Sheriff Kelvin Williams Sr. said.

He said authorities had no immediate answers in the death of the Jones' granddaughter.

Jones made an initial appearance in court on Tuesday night where a judge set bail at $500,000.

Police said Jones was the only person in the home with Royalty at the time.

Police tape still surrounded part of the home in the days after Royalty's body was found. A stroller, high chair and a trash barrel of toys, including a scooter, sat near the curb in front of the house.

Williams said those toys had belonged to Royalty.

Authorities said they had no immediately information about the circumstances leading up to the child's death.

'That's hard to say,' Williams said. 'We don't know.'

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help cover funeral costs.
