SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) - The trial of a mother who is accused of killing her young son is set to begin today.  Two years ago, Leilani Simon was arrested after investigators found the remains of her 20-month-old son, Quinton, in a Chatham County landfill. Leilani had originally reported her son missing to the Chatham County Police Department (CCPD) a month earlier.  In a news conference, CCPD shared that they had found evidence that pointed to Leilani being responsible for Quinton's disappearance.  "From A to Z, we were 100% committed to bringing justice for Quinton, and we believed that this was the right move today to be able to do that. She doesn't deserve a thanksgiving, quite frankly. If I can go off script a bit, Quinton deserves that, said Chatham County Police Chief Jeffrey Hadley.  Superior Court Judge Tammy Stokes will preside over the trial. Jury selection will begin and 9 a.m.  Leilani Simon is currently facing 19 charges, including malice and felony murder.   The defense for Simon has sought to dismiss the initial charges of malice murder and felony murder. The defense argued that the indictment lacked specifics on how Quinton was killed, and that lack of information hindered her ability to prepare a defense. The request was denied by Judge Stokes who emphasized that Simon is aware of the state's intention to prove intentional homicide.   Additionally, Simon's team requested to void four counts of making false statements, related to her concealment of disposing of Quinton's body and her drug use. Judge Stokes ruled that Simon's responses to the police were intentional attempts to mislead the investigation, allowing the charges to proceed.  Jury selection will begin today at 9 a.m.
