The Disturbing Death of Baby Ezekiel Stephan

On February 27, 2012, 19-month-old Ezekiel Stephan began to show signs of being sick. He wasn’t eating, he was having difficulty breathing and swallowing and initially, his mother thought that he might have croup, which typically sounds much worse than it is with that deep chesty cough. Over the next few days, Ezekiel’s condition began to worsen, to the point of his parents calling 911 because he had stopped breathing altogether. Ezekiel died just a week after being admitted to the children's hospital, on March 16, 2012, from bacterial meningitis. But his death would very quickly spark public outrage, a media circus and two trials where his parents would be closely looked at for their criminal negligence in providing the basic necessities of life for little Ezekiel.
