(ANSA) - PARMA, DECEMBER 10 - There was methadone in the body of the 18-month-old baby who died on April 4th at the Major Emergency Room despite the emergency intervention of the hospital in Parma. This is what has been ascertained by the mobile team of the Emilian city. The public prosecutor Paola Dal Monte has notified the notice of conclusion of the investigation and the mother of the child, a 37-year-old Parmigiana, is now accused of intentional murder and aggravated personal injury.
According to the 'Gazzetta di Parma', the child was voluntarily given the drug.
It is impossible to establish the precise quantity but in such a quantity as to cause "a depression of the respiratory centers". From the analysis of the child's hair it would then appear that it was not the first time. According to the medical-legal report from birth, or at least six months, the baby was given "unspecified amounts of substance of various kinds (cocaine-morphine-opiates)".
He died at 18 months, the mother investigated
