Following the death of a two-month-old baby who was found face down and not breathing on his mattress, a coroner has declared an open verdict in his death and seeks to remind parents and caregivers of the importance of safe sleeping practices.
This comes after a thorough investigation — which included an autopsy examination — failed to establish the cause of death.
