British aristocrats convicted in baby’s death and criminal cases

Constance Marten and Mark Gordon, a wealthy British aristocrat and a convicted rapist, were found guilty of manslaughter after their newborn daughter Victoria was discovered dead in a shed following a 53-day evasion from authorities across the UK. The couple, who had a history of domestic violence and neglect, traveled extensively with their children, avoiding social services and law enforcement, ultimately leading to the tragic death of their baby due to neglect and exposure. They are set to be sentenced later this year.

"Tragic Negligence: Addenbrooke's Hospital Fails to Administer Routine Vitamin, Resulting in Infant's Death"

A coroner has determined that there was "gross failure in medical care amounting to neglect" in the death of a baby at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. The baby, William Moris-Patto, died at seven weeks old after suffering a brain bleed. The coroner found that his death could have been prevented if he had been given a routine vitamin K, which is necessary for blood clotting. The hospital trust has apologized, and it was revealed that an audit showed 27 other babies were recorded as not having received vitamin K. The trust fully accepted the coroner's findings and stated that processes would be reviewed to prevent similar errors in the future.

"FDA Probes Hospital-Administered Probiotic's Role in Infant Fatality"

The FDA is investigating the death of a baby linked to a probiotic given by a hospital. The probiotic, Evivo with MCT Oil, manufactured by Infinant Health, is now being recalled. Genomic sequencing data showed that the bacterium causing sepsis in the infant matched the bacteria in the probiotic. Infinant Health has voluntarily agreed to stop shipping the product and is cooperating with the FDA's investigation. The FDA also issued a warning letter to Infinant Health, alleging that the company had made medical claims about the product that would be illegal to sell in the US. The FDA warns against the wide use of probiotics for preterm infants, citing conflicting data on safety and efficacy.
