Abstract

Investigation of child abuse deaths is often hindered by meager or unusual autopsy findings. Circumstantial factors are crucial in such investigations for a thorough understanding of the mechanism and manner of death. We present a case of childhood poisoning from aspirin and alcohol to demonstrate the medical neglect by the parents and the blatant discrepancies between the history provided by the parents and the actual facts preceding the child's death.
