A year after an unresponsive four-month-old baby was pronounced dead at Flagler Hospital, a woman presumed to be the child’s mother has been arrested and charged with aggravated manslaughter.
Sherrell Proctor, 34, was booked into the St. Johns County Jail early Monday morning after she was arrested on a first-degree negligent manslaughter warrant.
Paramedics then took the baby to Flagler Hospital where an emergency room doctor pronounced the child dead. The affidavit states that according to emergency room personnel, the child’s core body temperature was 93.2 degrees upon her arrival. According to medical experts, the normal body temperature for a baby is between 97.5 and 99.3 degrees.
The investigation into the child’s death revealed she was living in deplorable conditions inside a three-bedroom apartment with two adults and seven children. The seven children were reportedly asleep when Proctor left. One of Proctor’s children reportedly discovered the baby unresponsive on a couch and alerted an adult who was not named in the warrant. The adult called 911 and began life-saving measures to save the baby.
