The attempt to reverse the conviction of a couple who were imprisoned for keeping a “exceptionally thin” infant boy in deplorable circumstances prior to his death, with drug traces found in his milk bottle, was unsuccessful.

He had been exposed to the possibility of drug ingestion, according to an investigation, and a milk bottle discovered in his house had traces of diazepam.

According to the court, Stevenson left her kid with a handicapped and “morbidly obese” lady who had gone to bed after drinking too much.

Later, the woman’s terrified daughter found him in her arms, soaking in urine. Concerned about weight gain, Dr. Adrienne Sullivan told the trial that she had examined Stephen in October 2018.

According to her, he had long nails, unclean hands, feet, and armpits, and a “unusual” bodily odor emanating from him.

Upon examining the child, Professor Charlotte Wright informed the trial that he was “exceptionally thin.”
