In January 2010, police responding to a report of an ill child at the church found Timothy not breathing, and he died at a hospital, Sandoval said. The coroner ruled that Timothy perished from natural causes, Sandoval said, but police believed negligence was involved and sent a report to the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office. The DA's Office declined to charge anyone, Sandoval said, citing a lack of evidence.
