Police investigating, lawsuit filed after baby allegedly decapitated during delivery at metro Atlanta hospital
Police are now investigating after a lawsuit alleging a baby was decapitated during delivery on July 9 was filed against Southern Regional Medical Center and others.
Considering that absolute, near-impossibility of a decapitation during regular delivery and the stunningly unlikely chance of something like that accidentally occurring during a c-section, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say "reserve judgement, we don't have the full story yet", gentlemen. For all we know, the child was non-viable and/or already dead when the delivery was first attempted, and a delivery-by-parts was the least bad option once they began the c-section and got a clear look inside the mother.
Seriously.
Especially considering the parents are suing for:
Because you generally don't put a mother and infant under general anesthesia, lady; it's fucking dangerous.
AKA the gibsiest of "gibs me dat" bullshit. Baby dies, either during or before delivery, and you're suing for 'loss of earnings'? Fuck you and your gods-be-damned ambulance chasing lawyers.
