About this listen

The death of a baby who was decapitated during delivery has been ruled a homicide by a medical examiner's office in the U.S. state of Georgia.

Parents Jessica Ross and Treveon Taylor sued a hospital they allege failed to inform them that their son was decapitated during birth last year.

A medical examiner's office said the cause of death was a broken neck caused by human action, according to a statement shared by the couple's attorney.

The hospital has denied wrongdoing.

Mr. Taylor accused the doctor who delivered the baby and the hospital of lying to them and not allowing them to see their son, whom they named Treveon Taylor Jr.

"We just want justice for our son," Mr. Taylor said at a news conference on Wednesday in Atlanta. "They lied to us, they ain't let us touch him, we didn't like it."
