I don't feel like his reaction was genuine at all. He did that for the camera. This makes me sick.
Doctors called 'untrustworthy' by father charged in baby's malnutrition deathIn speaking with CPS workers, Welch "denied that Mary Welch was malnourished. He stated she was 'skinny but healthy.'"
As part of a home inspection, investigators said the baby's bedroom had soiled diapers with urine and fecal matter in a trash can next to her crib. The baby's mattress was west (sic) and soiled and the mattress had a rip in the foam, causing the baby to lay in the rip's crevice.
A baby bathtub was under the crib, below the foam mattress, and had urine in it.
The documents show that CPS did have previous contact with Tatiana Fusari in 2014 for "physical abuse due to drug exposed infant for marijuana." Kent County court records indicated no court case on the matter, however.
Dad: Charges in baby's death 'unfair,' about faithThe man accused of murder in the starvation death of his baby proclaimed his innocence in a jailhouse interview with 24 Hour News 8 Thursday.
...
Welch told 24 Hour News 8 he had no idea the baby was ill. He repeated claims made to police that he cared for his children without the aid of doctors because of religious beliefs.
"I believe I am being unfairly charged, being made an example of for my very strong faith," Welch said. "Going into the doctor's office these days is just about as dangerous as not going."
Welch said he was stunned by the charges and the potential penalty of life in prison. His mouth hung agape as the judge read the charging information during his arraignment earlier this week.
"I was very shocked. I went to my cell and I cried. …. I laid down flat on my face and I just cried out in prayer," Welch said.
...
In the first interview, he immediately took aim at the news reports about his charges.
"I would advise you to be careful what you say from here on out. You will answer to the Lord for everything that is said against me," Welch said sternly. "You go ahead and record it, sir."
Breast fed once a day? And why was the breast feeding mother the only one working?
Mom accused of starving baby: 'I dream about her'A day after her husband declared his innocence in an interview with 24 Hour News 8, Fusari did the same. Welch’s interview was done using the jail’s remote visitation system so the video and audio was recorded and published by 24 Hour News 8.
Fusari, for reasons unknown, could only receive visits at the jail facility where recording is not allowed in the visitation area.
“We’re not terrible people… it was purely accidental,” Fusari told 24 Hour News 8 during the interview. "I went to check on her… and my baby was dead.”
Fusari said that she was the first to notice Mary had died. After the baby had been sleeping for more than 16 hours under Welch’s care, Fusari said she went to check on her after returning from work.
“She was already cold,” Fusari said. “We were trying to perform CPR.”
For some reason, the couple didn’t immediately call 911. A report filed in court said that Welch admitted to waiting an hour before calling for emergency help — something Fusari was hesitant to discuss.
“Certain details of the case I’m not allowed to reveal,” she said citing advice from her attorney. “I was just told not to… we had a good reason.”
“She was already dead,” Fusari explained. “I just spent too much time crying.”
While her husband spent a great deal of his interview explaining the religious reasons for not taking his children to the doctor regularly, Fusari did not. Her reasoning was more pragmatic.
“We didn’t feel the need to,” Fusari explained. “It was just a matter of whether it was necessary.”
