Question by : Can an 8 week old baby die from blunt force trauma with out it being due to abuse?
My good friend is friends with a family who lost their 8 week old. Seven months later the cops released that the death was due to blunt force trauma. My friend says there is no way! So is it possible for a baby to die of blunt force trauma with out their being abuse? I cant seem to find any information online, so i need help. Thank you all so much!

Unless the baby was involved in a car accident and the damage didnt show effect until later, or likewise was accidentally dropped…I don’t see how it could have been due to anything but abuse, but who know.
I am more curious to know why it took seven months for that information to surface.

Jun 20, 12 at 3:01 am“Blunt force trauma” means that there has been a force place on the infant’s skull resulting in a fracture of the skull bones. This can be in the back or front areas although the location can vary. The force may be either accidental or intentional. If accidental it can be from pressure from birth (while being born & going through the birth canal) or from a fall. Babies that young cannot turn yet so a fall from a changing table or bed is unlikely. Abuse means that the force was done on purpose often when a baby cries & the parent (or parents) or other caregiver cannot deal with a crying infant ( who is usually hungry or uncomfortable.) An investigation is probably going to be done since the diagnosis, if determined by the coroner to be done intentionally, means the child was a homicide. If the parents are found not to have been the party causing the incident, it might be the result of being caused by another caregiver like a baby sitter. It will be up to the police to do this investigation. It will all depend on whether the fracture was caused accidentally or intentionally.
