I told you yesterday (14th) that a 16-month-old baby who was carried with a bruise and fracture died in the emergency room.

An autopsy was conducted today to check for abuse.

There have been three reports of suspicion that a baby is likely to be abused since last May, and each time it was confirmed that the police and child protection agencies concluded that there was no problem.



This is Jung Ban-seok.

At about 10:25 am the day before, my mother took A, a 16-month-old girl who had a cardiac arrest, to the emergency room of a hospital.



After more than six hours of treatment, he was diagnosed with death. Medical staff who found bruises and fractures reported child abuse to the police.



However, it turns out that there have been three more reports of suspected abuse before.



In May, three months after adoption, a doctor reported that there were bruises on both sides of the baby's thigh, and in June, an acquaintance reported that Miss A was left alone in the car.



The police and a specialized child protection agency conducted an investigation. I judged it.



In September, there was a report from a doctor that the child's weight was significantly reduced by about 1 kg, and there was a report from the doctor that abuse was suspected, but parents accepted the explanation that the child had a wound in the mouth and did not eat baby food.



A and his father met with SBS reporter, "I got a flu shot two days before my death, and nothing much happened except that I fell on a mat on a low sofa the morning of my death."



In the end, it is necessary to cover the reason for the bruises and fractures found all over the baby's body.



The police performed an autopsy at the National Institute of Scientific Investigation to determine the cause of death, and the results are expected to come out in about two weeks.
