It was later revealed that a 77-day-old baby in Geoje, Gyeongsangnam-do, died because he was not cared for by his parents.
According to the Gyeongnam Police Agency on the 21st, a 119 report was received about the baby not breathing at around 6:50 pm on the 23rd of October.
The person who reported it was the baby's biological father, Mr. A (21), and when paramedics arrived, the baby was already unconscious. Paramedics took the baby to the hospital right away, but the baby died about an hour after arriving at the hospital.
At the time of death, the baby had bruises on his stomach, and severe skin rashes and oozing were confirmed on the buttocks and anus.
According to the police, on the day of the incident, the biological mother B (18) was at her home, and the biological father, A, left the baby at about midnight that day and stayed in the PC room for 5 hours.
It was found that Mr. A, who returned home at around 5 a.m., gave formula to the baby and then gave it again around 12 noon and slept in a different room.
A police investigation revealed that the couple did not normally take care of the baby properly. Babies over 70 days old need formula at least every 3 hours, but they only fed 3 times a day.
They have even been known to dry and reuse disposable diapers for lack of money. There was no history of essential immunizations or hospital treatment for the baby.
The police are investigating the charges of child neglect and neglect against the biological father A, and child neglect against the biological mother B.
