There are a plethora of things that can go wrong when it comes to childbirth. There can be some complications caused due to natural causes or due to medical negligence. However, none could be this horrific if proven to be true.
A doctor allegedly climbed onto the mother's belly and ripped the child's head off. All of this is in front of the baby's father.
Raneilly Coelho Santos was taken to the hospital for elevated blood pressure on April 24. The doctors induced her into labor a week later. The doctor allegedly in charge called the father to observe the procedure.
The Police Report Gives a Conflicting Story
The father reportedly said that he witnessed the baby move her lips and blink her eyes as she was born. However, the family's police report said that the doctor allegedly climbed on the mother's belly and ripped the child's head off.
The Shady Documents
The police report said that the hospital issued an apology letter to the family. It was reported that a social worker visited the family and said that the hospital would cover the costs of the baby's funeral. However, the family will have to sign certain documents with specified conditions.
It has been allegedly reported that the documents stated that the autopsy of the baby has already been done at the hospital, and there is no need for it to be forwarded to the Legal Medical Institute (IML). However, the parents reportedly refused to sign the documents and immediately filed a complaint.
The hospital stated that they regret the case and would cooperate in the investigation.
