Suspicious Baby Death Reported In Hudson: NH Attorney General’s Office

CONCORD, NH — State and local officials are investigating the death of a baby in Hudson as suspicious.

The baby, who was 15 days old at the time, was taken to a Massachusetts hospital on June 21. The baby was “in medical distress,” according to Michael Garrity, the director of communications for the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office.

That medical distress was reported by officials to the Division for Children, Youth, and Families in New Hampshire the next day. DCYF, in turn, reported the death to police in Hudson.

The child died on June 30, Garrity said.

“The parties involved in the incident have been identified and based on the information known to investigators at this time, there is no known danger to the public,” he said. “The circumstances surrounding this child’s death are being actively investigated while the cause and manner of death is under investigation.”

The Mass. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner conducted an autopsy on July 1. The final results were not expected for several months, pending additional studies, Garrity said.
