Death of 4-Month-Old Shelton Boy Investigated as Homicide: Fairfield Police

Shelton, CT - The March 2016 death of four-month-old Adam Gregory Vasaturo Seagull, a Shelton boy who was in the care of an unlicensed daycare facility in Fairfield, is now being investigated as a homicide, according to police.

The Connecticut Post reports that toxicology tests conducted by the state medical examiner's office have concluded that there were high levels of benadryl in the child's body.

The 11-year-old daycare facility where the fatality occurred is located in the Edgewood Road home of Carol Cardillo. She contacted the police on the afternoon of March 22 when she could not wake up the infant after he had been put down for a nap.

Cardillo reportedly told police she did not give the child benadryl, writes the Post. A total of four adults were in the home at the time, as were a total of eight children in the facility's care. It has been closed since the death.
