A medical examiner on Tuesday released the manner of death for a
baby whose mother accused a Georgia hospital and others of
decapitating during delivery, ruling it a homicide.

The Clayton County, Georgia Medical Examiner’s office said the baby
died from a broken neck and the baby’s head was detached, according
to a news release shared with CNN.

The 20-year-old mother, Jessica Ross, filed a lawsuit in August
alleging the Southern Regional Medical Center attempted to conceal
the manner of death of the baby, Treveon Isaiah Taylor Jr., from her
and her boyfriend, Trevon Isaiah Taylor Sr., along with the whole
family.

The medical examiner’s office said Ross’s baby died from “fracture-
dislocation with complete transection, upper cervical (C1-C2) spine
and spinal cord,” due to “shoulder dystocia, arrest of labor, and
fetal entrapment in the birth canal,” according to the news release.

The medical examiner said pregnancy-induced diabetes and premature
rupture of membranes were also significant conditions contributing
to Taylor’s death.

The medical center is in Riverdale, some 13 miles south of downtown
Atlanta. The baby, who was named after his father, was delivered at
full term, according to the family attorney.

Ross went into labor on July 9 and her doctor attempted to deliver
the baby using various methods, including “applying traction to the
baby’s head,” the lawsuit says.

During the attempted delivery, “the baby did not properly descend
due to shoulder dystocia,” a condition when a baby’s shoulders
become stuck in the vaginal canal, the lawsuit says.

Ross says the doctor “grossly” and “negligently applied excessive
traction” on her baby’s head and neck, the complaint says. The
doctor is also accused of failing to do a Caesarean section “in a
timely and proper manner,” which resulted in the baby’s decapitation
and death, according to the lawsuit. The Caesarean section was
completed at about 3 a.m. on July 10, the filing said.

In August, after Ross filed the lawsuit, the hospital said in a
statement it “denies the allegations in the complaint referencing
the hospital.”

The family’s spokesperson has said that when Ross and Taylor
“demanded to see and hold their baby, hospital staff told them that
they were not allowed to touch or hold their child.”

“Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with the family and all
those impacted by this tragic event,” the medical center’s statement
reads. “Our prayers also remain with the dedicated team of
physicians, nurses and staff at Southern Regional Medical Center who
cared for this patient. Our commitment is to provide compassionate,
quality care to every single patient, and this loss is
heartbreaking.”

The workers only allowed the couple to see their dead child’s body,
the family’s spokesperson said.

“During this viewing, their baby was wrapped tightly in a blanket
with his head propped on top of his body in a manner such that those
viewing him could not identify that he had been decapitated,” the
statement said.

“I have never witnessed anything like this before. No one in our
office has seen anything like this. Everyone we have consulted has
never seen a situation like this before,” Clayton County Medical
Examiner’s Director Brian Byars told CNN on Tuesday. “I find it very
unusual that the hospital didn’t contact our office due to the
amount of trauma that was involved in this incident.”

The case is still under investigation by the Clayton County Police
Department and could be referred to the District Attorney’s office,
the release said.

Ross and her boyfriend are expected to give a public press
conference in Atlanta on Wednesday at 11 a.m.
