However, the baby was immediately transferred to the University of Florida Health where he was pronounced dead.
The medical examiner on the other hand believed the baby boy’s condition to be extremely concerning.
In addition, they said that the infant was malnourished with no evidence of food in his stomach or intestines.
The report read that the child looked to be, ‘extremely malnourished to the point that the victimโs stomach was caved and his rib cage protruded. The victimโs face was thin and his cheeks were sunken in.’
Meanwhile, the medical staff requested the police to investigate the death of the infant after seeing his condition.
Besides that, the officials caught McGowan abusing her child in surveillance footage during the investigation.
In the video, she was seen slamming her son against furniture and covering his head with a blanket. She later went on to violently slap the victimโs head continuously.
Additionally, the report mentions, “She grabs the victim by the head and face and forcefully twists the victimโs head to the side. She then covers the victimโs head with the blanket and begins to forcefully strike the victim on the back repeatedly with an open hand.’
Twitter users react to Tania McGowan abusing her son before death
Many netizens were left disturbed following the reports of the incident.
Several users took to social media to slam Tania McGowan for her parenting skills. However, few suspected that she was suffering from post-partum depression when she abused her child.
But others responded by saying that her mental health diagnosis was not a reason to starve her infant.
A user wrote, ‘Stop saying pray for her. Hell no. She knew wtf she was doing. I hope she go to jail for the rest of her life.’
