The investigation revealed that a 10-year-old bedridden boy, reliant on a feeding tube, tragically starved to death after his mother, facing negligence cases, fatally overdosed.
Law enforcement sources indicate that the mother, aged 39, died from an apparent drug overdose, leaving her son without anyone to care for his special needs.
The mother had a history of multiple cases with the Administration for Children's Services for drug use and neglect, highlighting systemic failures in monitoring.
Despite past interventions, the boy was returned to the mother's custody by ACS, which raises questions about the adequacy of their protective measures.
