I was a foster mother for many years for babies that were drug exposed. These babies don't "cry" like a normal baby does. They literally scream. It's so heartbreaking and as a mother myself I can't imagine how any woman can cause this amount of pain to your own flesh and blood. The comfort is that this precious child is resting in the arms of the Lord. ♡♡♡
@Sandra Turajlich no the parents are 100% responsible, CPS while they failed they did not murder this child. God has the baby now if you believe differently that’s on you.
Christina, bless you for all you have done for your foster children. It cannot be easy, especially with those having these terrible symptoms and the physical, emotional, and behavioral issues that come along. I can’t imagine that level of suffering starting from the very moment you’re born. It takes a very special kind of person to take these children into your home, give them the love and care they need, knowing they can be taken from you and returned to their birth family (which is of course the ultimate goal, for them to live safely, healthily, and happily with their parents) at any time. Thanks for all you do.
I’m so sorry for the 15 year old son. I remember being 15 it’s a hard age in itself but then to have this type of ‘family’ and ‘caregivers’ how tragic for him
The pain and discomfort, a full grown adult endures during withdrawal, can bring an otherwise "tough/pain tolerant" Man, to his knees! I can only imagine what that poor little guy went through 😢💔
Wow, this is very sad to digest. I truly appreciate this nurse, in all the knowledge she shared, ..this is mind blowing. Children are NOT asked to be in this world. You should not want to do drugs, while you're pregnant after hearing this wonderful nurse explain to you, the symptoms of drugs. God Bless you baby boy RIP
It is very sad, I know first hand what baby's go through. The bio mom used the night before delivery. He's a sweetheart and I love him as I do my two bio young adult kids 💖
Sunshine Jenkins ya and the saddest part is the parents/adults don’t wanna go thru withdrawal which is a horrible thing to go thru I worked in a facility and seen it first hand but they don’t care that a poor baby who had no choice to go thru it....DSS definitely dropped the ball on this case that baby was still going they withdrawal when he was sent with the father and would have made him more cranky then those assholes either high or chasing drugs had no patience to care for that poor child

yup and the parents because cps knew that baby was in danger (violence & drugs) and they still let them have it, and then you got cps that go and take kids that don't need to be taken cause someone can make a false claim and end up in way worse conditions cause they take a parenting class and get a check to care for the child... Cps has harmed more or put children in more danger than they help a big percentage of the time...And you know they're not gonna claim the death and accept the fact they let this baby get killed because they knew what all was going on and they knew he was letting her/babies bio-mom stay there DURING THE DAY-yeah right-that's his wife...com'mom...They knew...They should be responsible she said/maternity nurse: he wouldn't stop crying-baby, no eye contact from the bio-dad but didn't do anything for that baby...It seems to me it was the fault of the cps supervisor and the main person under her over the case for the child..

Stacey Riffitt is the epitome of professional - and she is now one of my 'goals'. Thank you for such a straightforward testimony, factual and honest when you could not give a definitive answer. You are a credit to your profession, and to Dylan.
So little Dylans 'mother' lashed out at him in anger because SHE caused him to be addicted and this little newborn struggled through withdrawals. SHE couldn't handle listening to him. What a disgusting excuse for a mother. Instead of being guilt riddled by seeing her own defenceless newborn go through the horrors of withdrawals. Instead of comforting him through this, she instead severely punished him for this. Omg. My heart breaks for that little angel 😥
I will NEVER understand this. Why, why WHY.... 😡😱💔 Unacceptable. We need to rally and change the laws concerning children. ANYONE who is convicted of such horrendous acts should be given the death penalty. Immediately. And or otherwise have the same EXACT treatment as their helpless little victims by the strongest, biggest, meanest person, continously and relentlessly until their demise .
Yes.....and if you’ve ever had a broken bone, my god it’s agony, you don’t want anyone to touch you.....this poor baby had a few and would have been picked up, and thrown around.....oh,....I can’t imagine what the poor little baby went through!
For her to have had any semblance of love and care for her newborn son, she would have to be free from being egotistical & self centered. A highly manipulative Narcissist, totally incapable of having empathy or even sympathy for anyone but herself! Poor Dylan had no chance😔😢😭😤😡🤬
Birth control and adoption are two options that are available and work. If you don’t want children then please don’t have them or just simply let a loving family adopt them
I will never understand why they didn't just leave baby Dylan in care. Why fight to get your baby back just to abuse him til you eventually kill him 😢😪
Because people feel entitled to children even when they know they are incapable of caring for them, their ego will make them fight to have them back, the children are possessions to them.
@Native Nfree the department of health and human resources need to just have a building just for infants and children to be brought to so no harm comes to them and nothing happens to the mother and they both get care...So many very young women that shouldn't be having kids that have kids are either in places that they shouldn't be and in situations and get scared need a place like that...I agree because there would be fewer babies abandoned and killed you are right like these safe havens but for parents to be able to do so without criminal charges...So many out there that want babies that other's don't want but do eventually later on in life would want to meet the bio parents for that child and more families would come together in the end and the bio-mothers wouldn't feel so shameful either and could face the child they gave up for a better life at the end of its caregiving and upbringing...
Narcissism. The vindictive, evil kind. She couldn't have the baby loving some woman who would do a better job than her, her baby loving an actual mother.
So this cross examination of a dedicated nurse was all about establishing the link between the nurses observation and the urine test done later that day. We later find out the older son was being made to provide urine for his father to falsify the Dads drug test.
When the defending woman stated could it have been possible the father was crying as he was distraught over his sons condition, how the nurse kept her cool says a lot of her person. I would have replied if he was so distraught and really cared for his son, we would not be in this courtroom talking about his newborn son being found at the bottom of a well wrapped in chains, locks and whatever else was stated. Whether he laid a hand on the child or not, he knew what was done and did nothing to stop it, prevent it or punish the one responsible, he deserves no lienency on any charges.
@potato lew44 I believe the mother is a narcissist. I know what the father did was bad, but he is or was kinda under her spell, trauma bonded, and then became pathelogical himself. Either the father's (Daniel) parents were narcissist or one of them were, I'm guessing his mother. I believe he felt helpless and she was in ultimate control and he followed suit.
@@carospereman3537 Daniel Groves Sr. may have been pussywhipped by Jessica, however, he did nothing to protect baby Dylan, thus, he's just as guilty as she. Both put drugs before their children. Both disposed of Dylan in a cruel and barbaric manner.
My question is this: why in the world would they let a helpless infant go home with a drug addicted mother and father? This could have been avoided. Just because some dude can follow 'protocol' for a short time shouldn't the parents have to prove themselves longer than a few months? How low has the bar been lowered when it comes to our innocents?
Allegedly, Daniel Grove passed urine tests and stated expressed interest in Dylan: Pleased with sentence, both got max for what they did, and when the reality of being in prison for the rest of their lives, combined with the memory of what they did, and effect on Daniel Jr.: Dead Man Walking! Jessica and Daniel were more concerned about their dogs than Daniel Jr and Dylan combined.
This makes me SICK.... took us poor baby went thru hell before he was even born then withdrawals which is horrible to watch and then sent home to these crackhead parents who had no patience to care for themselves chasing drugs never mind this poor innocent baby!!! I can’t believe that baby was able to go home so early from foster care no one can tell me he was done withdrawal and they had the means to care for a critical care baby! The foster mother had even equipment they use in a hospital for the baby boy....she had him for 12 days and she showed more emotion than they did and was in that courtroom everyday!!!
That poor sweet, defenceless, beautiful baby... The pain he suffered in his short life is unimaginable!!' 😢💔 I can't bear what he endured st the hands of the people who were supposed to love & keep him safe! It sickens me... The only comfort is, He is now an angel embraced by the Love of God...
The parents look MISERABLE! Good! Glad they have to sit there and listen to the clinical description of what THEY did to their innocent newborn. Karma's coming, guys.
Look at all this care this poor baby received from strangers and yet “parents” couldn’t have given 2 shits. Unbelievable. Bless you nurses and staff at the hospital.
It takes months for these babies to adjust to a drug free existence and they don’t have the capacity to keep babies that long. It’s hard work caring for them but anyone with training can do it in the community
If you watch other videos, you will see that the baby was fine in foster care. The foster mom took him to the Pediatrician twice and he was doing well. So I think 5 days hospitalization was enough but he should have been left in foster care.
Such a selfish act by the mother. Knowingly pregnant continued to take heroin, along with other drugs, because she didn't want to go through withdrawals. What about the poor baby? She didn't consider that the baby would be affected her abuse of drugs. She IS a NURSE. I'm not but knew very well that a baby could be born addicted to drugs from the mother's usage. Knowing now that she is a nurse has made me very angry.
I don’t think you understand addiction. ☹️ It takes over. The need for the drug is all someone knows. They don’t think about being pregnant. They don’t usually think of anything- except their next high. It’s a devastating cycle.
Withdrawal during pregnancy is potentially fatal to a fetus and often results in miscarriage or preterm labor. Had she sought prenatal care they could have treated her with methadone or other meds, but the baby would still feel the effects post natal.
C.P.S. Needs a complete makeover on their evaluations on why they would consider returning children to their biological parents,just because their the Biological Parents doesnt mean their the more capable parents...
Fr they did the same thing to my family even when my dad came to my school with a knife screaming about cutting up my little sister up and feeding her to us. It was on the news and everything but he still retains guardianship to this day
@@pegucornlove7238 ah I am so sorry that you had to go through this. It's important for kids to be with their parents, but only when they are safe and in a good environment.
@@pegucornlove7238similar for me, my half brother and his 7 siblings were placed back with their mother who along with her boyfriends, sexually abuses the children.
Congrats, Christie!!! I know it hasn't been easy, but you should be very proud of yourself! Wishing you many more years of good health and happiness!!!
As a mama who made sure my babies were warmly wrapped in soft blankets, fed and bathed often, insisted on car seats and all house safety, it’s difficult to hear of this poor little boy 👼
Same.. And I am also an ex drug addict. But at the end of the day when I found out I was pregnant at 3 week gestation, all the way through and after pregnancy I never once used and hardly ever let him out of my site or arms.. always a clean and healthy baby boy. :( I couldn't fathom my baby hurting the way baby Dylan did his entire life
It seems that the father knew what was going on but buried his head in the sand. Can’t believe he did witness the mother and how she treated their baby. Disgusting, disgraceful evil pair.
As I've been saying forever. Nurses need to be the people who say if babies can go home or suggest they be taken away. The nurses are the ones who see these women and babies closelyevery hour they are there. Please make nurses the ones who release there babies... It will save so many lives!!!!!
@@jakethedog4397 well only if you have issues that may cause harm to the baby. It's for the life of the child. Many people have killed their babies soon after. If there aren't any problems they notice then everything should be okay. There are women that get pregnant so much and don't have custody of all the others when they go have the baby they are pregnant with gets taken too. So there's that. Yes it's a thing. Someone in the family had it happen.
@@LisaLisa-bs7qx i don't think that should ever be up to a nurse or a doctor to decide to terminate someone's parental rights. However, cps should have done a lot more
Is there one SINGLE TRIAL without ridiculous coughing? I'm starting to think it's a ploy to say things under your cough. It's so invasive!!!! LEAVE the courtroom!!!
Tanya C. B. Did you ever consider that a person in this court room, that was required to be there, has a disability that involves chronic cough? Open your mind to ALL possibilities before being so nonsensical.

@@sheinFLJessica was probably angry at the baby because he exposed and subsequently ended her access to all that dope she was using. She looks evil, angry and sneaky. Typical lying dope fiend.
It's too bad she didn't seek prenatal care. With the current drug epidemic, drs and hospitals have created so many resources to help addicts who become pregnant.
She was a meth head. The baby was born with meth in his system. Hospitals don’t give out meth or other substances found in the baby’s umbilical cord at birth

He went home with a foster mom but CPS put him back with his parents after awhile. He never should of gone back!! CPS is a freaking joke! They have done this so many times with kids and the poor kids wind up dead. It breaks my heart 💔😢
I feel the same way! He needed to be in the hospital for MUCH longer! He absolutely needed meds💔 that poor baby suffered immensely to only be murdered by the people who should’ve protected him
Wow children services just handed over the baby without making sure that the parents never got any rehabilitation nor did they go through the steps to become rehabilitated from addiction they need to be held responsible to
After reading the comments I so agree nurses and hospitals should have a greater power in discharging babies to parents with questionable demeanours and newborn withdrawal scores. Thank you for giving this beautiful baby Dylan some form of justice God Bless😇
I could never do her job. My hat is off to the nurses who go through this with the little babies. I definitely wouldn't be able to be anywhere near a "mother" who would do this during her pregnancy. I'd be in the clink myself. 😡😱💔 Unacceptable. The Prosecutor knew what questions he was going to ask the nurse. Why didn't the state prepare her with tabs or something to help her with that huge file?
LOVE these nurses...the last one especially. Props for answering under cross about Daniel possible crying, etc. without laughing AND letting her body language answer for her -- shaking her head no while saying yes/possibly!!! Nailing the attorney about the halflife of some drugs!! EPIC
Please stop trying to defend this reprehensible pair. They - separately and together - are the very definition of “criminal”... The proof is in the birth of a drug addicted infant who ended up murdered at the bottom of a well while in the care of these two monsters.
Theresa Lawver they stared during the trial that she had worked in nursing homes😢. Her husband said he didn’t realize she was pregnant, and thought she had just gained weight because she hadn’t been working
I witnessed a new born going through withdrawal it’s absolutely horrified . It’s not a normal cry it would go through you , she forgot to mention shivering and then hot flushing . It’s absolutely horrific I would not wish anyone to witness it .😢😢😢
Why would anyone let a newborn go home with addictive parents and plus needs the care of withdrawal of being born with drugs in his system!!!! He really did slip the net and a few people have to answer for his death. He had no chance. Bless him 🙏 ❤ 💙
@Native Nfree So true.. but it must be so hard in a case like this..to see a newborn and know you are sending it home eventually with drug users and then to find out the sweet baby was murdered 💔💔💔💔
It was important for the jury to have all the finigin scores recorded read off for every hours while he was in the care of the hospital. It indicates the severity, when the condition is scoring at a 14!! it illustrates his prolonged withdrawal process at only 5 pounds. HE FOUGHT SO HARD. The monster mother almost killed him for 9 months but it wasn't enough for her. Rest In Peace precious child.
You know I act like the father at times in public eyes down avoid eye contact etc but I don't do drugs I went through some pretty traumatic shtuff years back and it forever changed the way I deal with people good and bad days. It always bothers me how everyone assumes drugs . Everyone supports PTSD social anxiety etc right up until they meet someone who has it then it's drugs or their stuck up 🐎 holes. People who are legit PTSD or social anxiety almost need name tags to be treated like people not junkies
I can relate. I had terrible ptsd years ago and was very underweight and riddled with anxiety. I'm sure people made terrible assumptions about what was happening with me.
Exactly! People are so ready to judge anyone that fits into their little categories based on whatever personal knowledge they do or don’t have. Almost everyone is struggling with something they’ve gone through. We don’t know how devastating or traumatic their personal experiences are.
These two should never see the light of day. The pain and suffering this baby suffered before and after birth is very upsetting. She had no regard for this child
I'm a mother and a recovery addict... while I was pregnant I was in a maintenance program and still am to do this day. She could of gotten help. The baby could have went through withdrawal and thats a possibility he wouldn't of. Still it isn't easy watching it but my child got to go home with me and is healthy and smart and there is nothing wrong with with my either one of my children.
The second that lawyer comes out look at the nurses neck, she’s so scared. What a brave lady. I’ve been through this in court and you have to be so strong.
It looks like she has no thyroid, that may be why her neck is red, my mother in law and my husband had to have there’s removed and they get red like that quiet often when anxious and nervous
I'm so sick in my soul. My heart aches for the little angel. I was never blessed with a child and will never be. And these murderers are blessed, I just don't understand.
Who doesn’t notice a pregnant woman at 8 months?! Wow I just cannot with these evil people. That baby shouldn’t have been with them ever. He had no chance with them.💔
It’s very possible! My husband and I hid our pregnancy up until the day he was born! No one ever suspected it because of how I dressed and disguised my belly lol
I think its cruel they dont give babies suffering from withdrawals if they're a 7 and not an 8. tht baby can't say, Im suffering. it should be obvious theyre suffering.
Jennifer S. It’s more to do with the type of medication they would have to give. Once you start a baby on for example ‘methadone’, then that baby would have to be on a programme to withdrawal from it. Which can last a long time and cause other symptoms to these baby’s. So they try to comfort baby’s if it’s only a matter of a short lasting, minimal symptom withdrawal in other ways. They’d do this with regular feeding, even sugar assists with pain etc etc.. I’m a midwife so am not entirely forte with their methods but have had these conversations before with neonatal drs. I’ve seen some baby’s who withdraw straightaway and others who take days to exhibit symptoms. Alcohol withdrawal can be one of the worse and directly from birth 😳
OMG I said the same thing. So what if they have to stay longer in the nursery to wean. I think they should make them comfortable even if it's not the Finnigan magic number.
I just don’t understand how people do this to their children. It quite literally brings me so much joy to properly take care of my kid and make sure he’s safe, and taken care of. How do ppl do such evil to their own baby? 😭😭
why was the lawyer grilling the nurse about the father,her job is to care for the mother and her well being,since when do they have to baby sit the father?
What an amazing staff of nurses at that hospital. I live 1 hour from Boston and I didn't have anywhere near that kind of caring and warm hearted staff while I had my twins. Too bad these scumbags took it for granted instead of asking for help!
@@corinnegkayciesmom5874 EXACTLY! And strangely some hospitals will allow the RN to continue being employed as long as they complete rehabilitation! Never mind the patients who suffered in pain because they never received the drugs ordered because the nurse took them and charted that they were given!
This poor baby probably cried all of the time because of the drug withdrawal. The old druggie Mom probably couldn't handle it. The are two sorry excuses for human beings.
36:12 and following: if the baby was on oxygen for the first hour and half of his life, that means from approx. 6:00am (he was born at 5:54am) to 7:30am. So, the father was in the nursery before 7:30am, not before 8:30am. The time the baby started oxygen was not the time the nurse started her shift, the latter being 7:00am. It is remarkable that the nurse did not catch the mistake but, more important, I cannot understand how the defense attorney can miss or misunderstanding this point, because being in the nursery before 7:30am is better for her client than being in the nursery before 8:30am.
I am a retired ob nurse nursery why did cps allow that baby back into the home that soon especially with their other older child in the system I don't understand!!!
@Native Nfree I would call that felony child abuse. If a child gets into harmful substances after they're born, it is. I would think even more so while in utero. My daughter had an abruptio placenta and they tested both for drugs and alcohol immediately and told my daughter if it was positive for either, she would be charged with child abuse. That really ticked my daughter off but I understand why they do it. Perhaps it depends on the state?
why did they have to kill the kid? can anyone answer that? does the prosecutor say what they said they did? that CPS really sucks, it seems when they're not doing their job they're selling the kids to traffickers.
I'm amazed at so many comments on here consist of questions that you would know the answers to if you would just listen to the trial and the testimonies. Geesh!!!!!
So the husband did know that his wife was still using Heroin to keep off the withdrawal not only knowing it when she delivered at the hospital as was previously stated. He was irresponsible because any normal person has to know that this continued use has to affect the baby! The husband displays mild signs of using some type of drugs whether legal or illegal.
my grandson was born addicted he was in the hospital for a very long time so five days I know I went to see himall the time he was in the hospital for a very long time I think it was like over a month well over a month for the life of me why they sent this child home with my daughter-in-law I have no idea
I am a nurse too and she pulled that half life nonsense out of her butt, because lawyer made her point. All but 1 st nurse are testifying mostly subjectively and NOT objectively as we are taught. This nurse has a bad attitude that you can see on her face as she closes and rolls her eyes when she don’t like the direction of the question!
The eye closing thing she does is something I do when I'm thinking. People point it out to me all the time lol. It was the first thing I noticed about it because I've never seen anyone else do it lol
I was a foster mother for many years for babies that were drug exposed. These babies don't "cry" like a normal baby does. They literally scream.

Because people feel entitled to children even when they know they are incapable of caring for them, their ego will make them fight to have them back, the children are possessions to them.
Lots of parents just use the baby to get money from the state, like welfare checks, food stamps and more money on their taxes! It's disturbing!
@Native Nfree the department of health and human resources need to just have a building just for infants and children to be brought to so no harm comes to them and nothing happens to the mother and they both get care...So many very young women that shouldn't be having kids that have kids are either in places that they shouldn't be and in situations and get scared need a place like that...I agree because there would be fewer babies abandoned and killed you are right like these safe havens but for parents to be able to do so without criminal charges...So many out there that want babies that other's don't want but do eventually later on in life would want to meet the bio parents for that child and more families would come together in the end and the bio-mothers wouldn't feel so shameful either and could face the child they gave up for a better life at the end of its caregiving and upbringing...
Narcissism. The vindictive, evil kind. She couldn't have the baby loving some woman who would do a better job than her, her baby loving an actual mother.
@@taylormarlenia93 Bullseye
Great analogy about the storm and babies exhibiting signs of opioid withdrawal
I agree!
I thought so too Debbie
The nurse giving evidence was soooo intelligent and presented her evindence amazingly. She was so sure and precise and extremely well spoken!!!
I should hope so!
I absolutely love this nurse. She is so honest and doesn't let the defense get to her or change her opinion
So this cross examination of a dedicated nurse was all about establishing the link between the nurses observation and the urine test done later that day.
We later find out the older son was being made to provide urine for his father to falsify the Dads drug test.
that's exactly what i was thinking as soon as she said "well so you didn't know his drug screen was NEGATIVE!" like it was some big gotcha lol
When the defending woman stated could it have been possible the father was crying as he was distraught over his sons condition, how the nurse kept her cool says a lot of her person. I would have replied if he was so distraught and really cared for his son, we would not be in this courtroom talking about his newborn son being found at the bottom of a well wrapped in chains, locks and whatever else was stated. Whether he laid a hand on the child or not, he knew what was done and did nothing to stop it, prevent it or punish the one responsible, he deserves no lienency on any charges.
I totally agree!
@potato lew44 I believe the mother is a narcissist. I know what the father did was bad, but he is or was kinda under her spell, trauma bonded, and then became pathelogical himself. Either the father's (Daniel) parents were narcissist or one of them were, I'm guessing his mother. I believe he felt helpless and she was in ultimate control and he followed suit.
Amen!
I love that she started I would assume so after the lawyer said she assumed he was on drugs.
@@carospereman3537 Daniel Groves Sr. may have been pussywhipped by Jessica, however, he did nothing to protect baby Dylan, thus, he's just as guilty as she. Both put drugs before their children. Both disposed of Dylan in a cruel and barbaric manner.
My question is this: why in the world would they let a helpless infant go home with a drug addicted mother and father? This could have been avoided. Just because some dude can follow 'protocol' for a short time shouldn't the parents have to prove themselves longer than a few months? How low has the bar been lowered when it comes to our innocents?
Allegedly, Daniel Grove passed urine tests and stated expressed interest in Dylan: Pleased with sentence, both got max for what they did, and when the reality of being in prison for the rest of their lives, combined with the memory of what they did, and effect on Daniel Jr.: Dead Man Walking!
Jessica and Daniel were more concerned about their dogs than Daniel Jr and Dylan combined.
Baby was sent home with the foster mother. After 12 days CPS had baby Dylan given back to the drug addicted birth parents. So blame lays with CPS.
@@Penny-bt4gc cps is so useless
Right

Poor little baby 😢 So horrific.
This makes me SICK.... took us poor baby went thru hell before he was even born then withdrawals which is horrible to watch and then sent home to these crackhead parents who had no patience to care for themselves chasing drugs never mind this poor innocent baby!!! I can’t believe that baby was able to go home so early from foster care no one can tell me he was done withdrawal and they had the means to care for a critical care baby! The foster mother had even equipment they use in a hospital for the baby boy....she had him for 12 days and she showed more emotion than they did and was in that courtroom everyday!!!
That poor sweet, defenceless, beautiful baby... The pain he suffered in his short life is unimaginable!!' 😢💔 I can't bear what he endured st the hands of the people who were supposed to love & keep him safe! It sickens me... The only comfort is, He is now an angel embraced by the Love of God...
The parents look MISERABLE! Good! Glad they have to sit there and listen to the clinical description of what THEY did to their innocent newborn. Karma's coming, guys.
Look at all this care this poor baby received from strangers and yet “parents” couldn’t have given 2 shits. Unbelievable. Bless you nurses and staff at the hospital.
The nurse knew her business. Speaking as one myself. I’m just now watching the trial.
The fact they only kept baby Dylan 5 days is crazy to me. Poor baby didn't stand a chance from the day he was conceived 😢
It takes months for these babies to adjust to a drug free existence and they don’t have the capacity to keep babies that long. It’s hard work caring for them but anyone with training can do it in the community
And he only weighed just under 5 pounds at what 17 days old?
If you watch other videos, you will see that the baby was fine in foster care. The foster mom took him to the Pediatrician twice and he was doing well. So I think 5 days hospitalization was enough but he should have been left in foster care.
The only two photos ever taken of this baby (Dylan) was during the twelve days he spent with his foster nom (Andrea Bowling).
There actually is other pictures but not much. But, he was under weight. Doubt they wanted proof
Heartbreaking
Even those pictures were taken by someone other than his parents, the foster mom took them.
Such a selfish act by the mother. Knowingly pregnant continued to take heroin, along with other drugs, because she didn't want to go through withdrawals. What about the poor baby? She didn't consider that the baby would be affected her abuse of drugs. She IS a NURSE. I'm not but knew very well that a baby could be born addicted to drugs from the mother's usage. Knowing now that she is a nurse has made me very angry.
The mother is a nurse?!
@@shonna4545 yes
It’s shocking, really.
I don’t think you understand addiction. ☹️
It takes over. The need for the drug is all someone knows.
They don’t think about being pregnant. They don’t usually think of anything- except their next high.
It’s a devastating cycle.
Withdrawal during pregnancy is potentially fatal to a fetus and often results in miscarriage or preterm labor. Had she sought prenatal care they could have treated her with methadone or other meds, but the baby would still feel the effects post natal.
C.P.S. Needs a complete makeover on their evaluations on why they would consider returning children to their biological parents,just because their the Biological Parents doesnt mean their the more capable parents...
Fr they did the same thing to my family even when my dad came to my school with a knife screaming about cutting up my little sister up and feeding her to us. It was on the news and everything but he still retains guardianship to this day

As a mama who made sure my babies were warmly wrapped in soft blankets, fed and bathed often, insisted on car seats and all house safety, it’s difficult to hear of this poor little boy 👼
Same..
And I am also an ex drug addict. But at the end of the day when I found out I was pregnant at 3 week gestation, all the way through and after pregnancy I never once used and hardly ever let him out of my site or arms.. always a clean and healthy baby boy. :( I couldn't fathom my baby hurting the way baby Dylan did his entire life
I’ve got a good feeling about this nurse like we need more of people like her around.
If you’re hacking up a lung, maybe it’s time to step out of the courtroom🙄
Seems like every trial has a chronic cougher
😂
Mary Loves Makeup77 exactly! It’s almost worse than a cell phone! One at every trial😷
Honestly! I would never subject people to that.
Ive noticed that Ive watched a few trials and there is always some one with a cough 😷
Hell is too good for Jessica and Daniel groves
I do agree 100000%😡😡😡😡😡
It seems that the father knew what was going on but buried his head in the sand. Can’t believe he did witness the mother and how she treated their baby. Disgusting, disgraceful evil pair.
Make a difference. Become a foster parent. Yes, the "system" failed this one, but not every child is failed. Help them!
As I've been saying forever. Nurses need to be the people who say if babies can go home or suggest they be taken away. The nurses are the ones who see these women and babies closelyevery hour they are there. Please make nurses the ones who release there babies... It will save so many lives!!!!!
Doctors should be the ones that’s should have the say not nurses
@@petakucas7389 but nurses are dealing with them on a hourly basis. They are basically hands on 24/7 and would be a better judge.
Permission to take MY baby? I don’t think so
@@jakethedog4397 well only if you have issues that may cause harm to the baby. It's for the life of the child. Many people have killed their babies soon after. If there aren't any problems they notice then everything should be okay. There are women that get pregnant so much and don't have custody of all the others when they go have the baby they are pregnant with gets taken too. So there's that. Yes it's a thing.

It's too bad she didn't seek prenatal care. With the current drug epidemic, drs and hospitals have created so many resources to help addicts who become pregnant.
She was a meth head. The baby was born with meth in his system. Hospitals don’t give out meth or other substances found in the baby’s umbilical cord at birth

Alice Farretta the nurses contacted the social worker- they did their job. He went home with a foster mom, that’s where he should have stayed 😥
He went home with a foster mom but CPS put him back with his parents after awhile. He never should of gone back!! CPS is a freaking joke! They have done this so many times with kids and the poor kids wind up dead. It breaks my heart 💔😢
I feel the same way! He needed to be in the hospital for MUCH longer! He absolutely needed meds💔 that poor baby suffered immensely to only be murdered by the people who should’ve protected him
Wow children services just handed over the baby without making sure that the parents never got any rehabilitation nor did they go through the steps to become rehabilitated from addiction they need to be held responsible to
Traci Konrad reunification is priority in CPS, not safety. In every state.
Traci Konrad Sounds like a sacrifice to me .

I highly doubt she is
She s an assistant in a senior home....not dissing folks in this position at all
@@kulrich10 she was a licensed practical nurse
After reading the comments I so agree nurses and hospitals should have a greater power in discharging babies to parents with questionable demeanours and newborn withdrawal scores. Thank you for giving this beautiful baby Dylan some form of justice God Bless😇
They are mandated reporters but they aren't allowed to steal someone's kid
I could never do her job. My hat is off to the nurses who go through this with the little babies. I definitely wouldn't be able to be anywhere near a "mother" who would do this during her pregnancy.
I'd be in the clink myself. 😡😱💔
Unacceptable.
The Prosecutor knew what questions he was going to ask the nurse. Why didn't the state prepare her with tabs or something to help her with that huge file?
The nurses voice becomes so soft and caring when speaking about the baby.
I noticed that too. She seems compassionate and professional.
LOVE these nurses...the last one especially. Props for answering under cross about Daniel possible crying, etc. without laughing AND letting her body language answer for her -- shaking her head no while saying yes/possibly!!! Nailing the attorney about the halflife of some drugs!! EPIC
Well Done Stacey Riffitt - on your education - on your perseverance - and your testimony.
Excellent testimony!
Please stop trying to defend this reprehensible pair. They - separately and together - are the very definition of “criminal”... The proof is in the birth of a drug addicted infant who ended up murdered at the bottom of a well while in the care of these two monsters.
This “mother” was a nurse - until 2018😡
Pretty significant, isn't it. 😲 can we ask WHERE 😲
I was stunned. That makes it even worse. 😭
Theresa Lawver they stared during the trial that she had worked in nursing homes😢. Her husband said he didn’t realize she was pregnant, and thought she had just gained weight because she hadn’t been working
Sondra Miller that’s what I said too. Everything I learn about this makes me angrier and angrier.
Was she an actual nurse or just worked in a nursing home? A person can work in a nursing home and not be a nurse. She could’ve been a CNA.
Poor wee baby..so sad😢
I witnessed a new born going through withdrawal it’s absolutely horrified . It’s not a normal cry it would go through you , she forgot to mention shivering and then hot flushing . It’s absolutely horrific I would not wish anyone to witness it .😢😢😢
I’m in aww that this woman was a nurse so she knew the harm she was causing to Dylan!!! My my
Why would anyone let a newborn go home with addictive parents and plus needs the care of withdrawal of being born with drugs in his system!!!! He really did slip the net and a few people have to answer for his death. He had no chance. Bless him 🙏 ❤ 💙
She's worked 27 years as a nurse?? Sheez.. she doesn't look much older than 27 years old 😳
@Native Nfree So true.. but it must be so hard in a case like this..to see a newborn and know you are sending it home eventually with drug users and then to find out the sweet baby was murdered 💔💔💔💔
The witness. She looks good for her age, but she looks well over 27.
She looks in her 40s
It was important for the jury to have all the finigin scores recorded read off for every hours while he was in the care of the hospital. It indicates the severity, when the condition is scoring at a 14!! it illustrates his prolonged withdrawal process at only 5 pounds. HE FOUGHT SO HARD. The monster mother almost killed him for 9 months but it wasn't enough for her. Rest In Peace precious child.
My heart breaks for the foster mom. If only they would have let Dylan stay with her. 12 days????? Returned that baby after 12 days!! Shameful.
These defense lawyers KNEW they weren't going to be able to help these monsters out of prison
You know I act like the father at times in public eyes down avoid eye contact etc but I don't do drugs I went through some pretty traumatic shtuff years back and it forever changed the way I deal with people good and bad days. It always bothers me how everyone assumes drugs . Everyone supports PTSD social anxiety etc right up until they meet someone who has it then it's drugs or their stuck up 🐎 holes. People who are legit PTSD or social anxiety almost need name tags to be treated like people not junkies
I can relate. I had terrible ptsd years ago and was very underweight and riddled with anxiety. I'm sure people made terrible assumptions about what was happening with me.
Exactly! People are so ready to judge anyone that fits into their little categories based on whatever personal knowledge they do or don’t have. Almost everyone is struggling with something they’ve gone through. We don’t know how devastating or traumatic their personal experiences are.
Agree 100%!
@@tonyabrookes9931 sending you healing hugs.
These two should never see the light of day. The pain and suffering this baby suffered before and after birth is very upsetting. She had no regard for this child
I'm a mother and a recovery addict... while I was pregnant I was in a maintenance program and still am to do this day. She could of gotten help. The baby could have went through withdrawal and thats a possibility he wouldn't of. Still it isn't easy watching it but my child got to go home with me and is healthy and smart and there is nothing wrong with with my either one of my children.
Did the defense try to say “She’s not an expert” at 23:50 ? How many years of experience does this nurse need to be an expert?!
The second that lawyer comes out look at the nurses neck, she’s so scared. What a brave lady. I’ve been through this in court and you have to be so strong.
Watching the video, she starts rubbing/touching her neck. It looked pink/red from that but it started before the Defense Attorney’s questioning. 🤷♀️
It looks like she has no thyroid, that may be why her neck is red, my mother in law and my husband had to have there’s removed and they get red like that quiet often when anxious and nervous
she is so disgusted by the female defense attorney, you can just see in her face how upset she really is especially having to relive this situation
I'm so sick in my soul. My heart aches for the little angel. I was never blessed with a child and will never be. And these murderers are blessed, I just don't understand.
Who doesn’t notice a pregnant woman at 8 months?!
Wow I just cannot with these evil people. That baby shouldn’t have been with them ever. He had no chance with them.💔
It’s very possible! My husband and I hid our pregnancy up until the day he was born! No one ever suspected it because of how I dressed and disguised my belly lol
I think its cruel they dont give babies suffering from withdrawals if they're a 7 and not an 8. tht baby can't say, Im suffering. it should be obvious theyre suffering.
Jennifer S. It’s more to do with the type of medication they would have to give. Once you start a baby on for example ‘methadone’, then that baby would have to be on a programme to withdrawal from it. Which can last a long time and cause other symptoms to these baby’s. So they try to comfort baby’s if it’s only a matter of a short lasting, minimal symptom withdrawal in other ways. They’d do this with regular feeding, even sugar assists with pain etc etc..
I’m a midwife so am not entirely forte with their methods but have had these conversations before with neonatal drs. I’ve seen some baby’s who withdraw straightaway and others who take days to exhibit symptoms. Alcohol withdrawal can be one of the worse and directly from birth 😳
OMG I said the same thing. So what if they have to stay longer in the nursery to wean. I think they should make them comfortable even if it's not the Finnigan magic number.
@@mszoe1974 Just fyi, a neonate with NAS is given morphine for withdrawal symptoms.
Drugs are given if the withdrawals are causing the baby to fit or it can’t sleep
I just don’t understand how people do this to their children. It quite literally brings me so much joy to properly take care of my kid and make sure he’s safe, and taken care of. How do ppl do such evil to their own baby? 😭😭
why was the lawyer grilling the nurse about the father,her job is to care for the mother and her well being,since when do they have to baby sit the father?
Brenda Bowman I agree with you , but I believe she’s the Dads lawyer, and she is annoying as if the Nurse is on trial here🤨
What an amazing staff of nurses at that hospital. I live 1 hour from Boston and I didn't have anywhere near that kind of caring and warm hearted staff while I had my twins. Too bad these scumbags took it for granted instead of asking for help!

@@corinnegkayciesmom5874 EXACTLY! And strangely some hospitals will allow the RN to continue being employed as long as they complete rehabilitation! Never mind the patients who suffered in pain because they never received the drugs ordered because the nurse took them and charted that they were given!

when someone is coughing up a lung they need to leave......
The air in these courtrooms is so dry, honestly, I think they should hand out Halls/water to everyone who walks in the door.
Should have not been released until he was over this.
This poor baby probably cried all of the time because of the drug withdrawal. The old druggie Mom probably couldn't handle it. The are two sorry excuses for human beings.
46 isn’t old at all but she looks closer to 32!
36:12 and following: if the baby was on oxygen for the first hour and half of his life, that means from approx. 6:00am (he was born at 5:54am) to 7:30am. So, the father was in the nursery before 7:30am, not before 8:30am. The time the baby started oxygen was not the time the nurse started her shift, the latter being 7:00am.
It is remarkable that the nurse did not catch the mistake but, more important, I cannot understand how the defense attorney can miss or misunderstanding this point, because being in the nursery before 7:30am is better for her client than being in the nursery before 8:30am.
GOOD POINT!!
@Heather Goodwin : thank you, I’m really glad that you agree with me.
And yet it matters not....
Holds no bearing on the case, so it’s not important
Very good witness. Shes very knowledgeable and well spoken. These parents are wrong
I am a retired ob nurse nursery why did cps allow that baby back into the home that soon especially with their other older child in the system I don't understand!!!
Daniels attorney needs to be reprimanded for badgering.. this was absolutely ludicrous.
Being a drug addict doesn't make you a murderer, these people were evil from the start!! 😡
Why aren't these abusive mothers not arrested on the spot 😲 the baby suffers so much
@Native Nfree I would call that felony child abuse. If a child gets into harmful substances after they're born, it is. I would think even more so while in utero. My daughter had an abruptio placenta and they tested both for drugs and alcohol immediately and told my daughter if it was positive for either, she would be charged with child abuse. That really ticked my daughter off but I understand why they do it. Perhaps it depends on the state?
why did they have to kill the kid? can anyone answer that? does the prosecutor say what they said they did? that CPS really sucks, it seems when they're not doing their job they're selling the kids to traffickers.
Does anyone know, is j groves lawyer was new to the job ? he seems completely out of his depth.
Totally agree. Everything he says and asks is pointless.
Maybe he didn't had real interest in defending those scumbags after all.
@@Elasesinodelcruce he was apparently court appointed. He said he would like to be released from the case.after the sentence was passed.
They more than likely have appointed free lawyers provided by the state. They work for the state and I doubt they care to put up much of a fight
He was grasping at straws. He knew they didn't have a case and the parents were guilty.
I'm amazed at so many comments on here consist of questions that you would know the answers to if you would just listen to the trial and the testimonies. Geesh!!!!!
The nurse is an angel.
It appears to me that FSA should hold these people more accountable and when situations like Dylan's happen, FCS should be accountable!!!!
So the husband did know that his wife was still using Heroin to keep off the withdrawal not only knowing it when she delivered at the hospital as was previously stated. He was irresponsible because any normal person has to know that this continued use has to affect the baby! The husband displays mild signs of using some type of drugs whether legal or illegal.
I remember talking about this in history class in high school what a terrible thing to happen 💔
Hope these people never see the light of day again
