Two Parents from Helvoirt Whose Baby died of Malnutrition Have Been Given a Two-Year Suspended Prison Sentence. Because They had Already Been in Custody for A Year, They No Longer Have To Remain in Jail. They cool their baby mushrooms and soy powder.
A Court in Den Bosch Has Convicted the Parents of Manslaughter. Their Son, Seventeen Days Old, died in February as a Result of Malnutrition.
Because the mother did not produce breast milk, the parents cool the child mushrooms and soy powder in demineralized water. That type of water is not suitable for consumption.
The Public Prosecution Service (OM) had Demanded Six Years in Prison Against the Parents and Spoke of Manslaughter. The Court did not agree with that. It States That the Parents Thought They Were Taking Good Care of Their Child and Did Not Kill It Intentionally.
The Father Himself Called the Emergency Services Last Year because the Baby Felt Cold. When Emergency Workers Found the Baby, It was Small, Blue, And Motionless. Earlier in the Court Case, experts Indicated that the Parents Suffer from a delusional Disorder and are Therefore Partially Accountable.
Mother had PreviOutly Given Birth to An Underdeveloped Child
The Parents had a fascination with mushrooms. Accordance to the om, they ignored all the red flags and imposed their life convictions on their baby “at all costs”. At the time the baby died, the mother was also in Very Poor Health Due to Her Diet.
In 2022, The Mother Gave Birth to An Underdeveloped Child. That was placed with a foster family immediately after birth. The Woman Has Now Been Sterilized.
