U.S. nurse nabbed in a shocking case involving severe injüries to premature babies

One former nurse has been nabbed in the United States for child ab+se after three premature babies were left with “unexplainable fractures” at a Virginia hospital.

The 26-year-old suspect, Erin Elizabeth Ann Strotman, was charged with malicious wounding and felony child ab+se over the disturbing infant injuries at Hernia Doctors’ Hospital in Richmond last month.

Henrico County Police in a press release said the premies were found with inexplicably broken bones in late November and early December.

This comes after four babies — including a newborn with a fractured leg — were hurt in the same unit in the summer of 2023, police said.

“’The Henrico County Police Division is utilizing all available resources to ensure a thorough investigation into this matter,” the department said.

The hospital is currently no longer accepting babies into the neonatal intensive care unit out of abundance of caution — and has taken steps to beef up security.

The hospital in a statement said:

“In late November/December, we discovered that three babies in our Henrico Doctors’ Hospital NICU had unexplainable fractures, similar to an incident involving four babies in the summer of 2023.

We initiated a thorough internal investigation, informed the families and notified the proper authorities and regulatory agencies and worked collaboratively with them on their investigations.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
