Missouri Couple Sue Docs For Allegedly Decapitating Baby During Childbirth

Arteisha Betts  and Travis Ammonette are suing a pair of obstetricians for allegedly decapitating their baby boy during his March 22, 2011, delivery then trying to hide the fatal error by shoving the child’s body and severed head back in to the Mom’s birth canal.

After conceiving their baby via in-vitro fertilization, the Florissant, Miss., couple anticipated the birth of their baby boy whom they had named Kaden Travis.  As Betts progressed in her pregnancy, doctors began to notice some abnormalities with regards to the baby’s abdomen, which was growing unusually large.

According to the complaint, which the couple filed in the courts last September, the defendants, Drs. Susan Moore and Gilbert W. Webb, both practice at the Midwest Maternity & Fetal Medicine Services, a clinic that specializes in high-risk pregnancies.

The couple contend that Dr. Moore had advised them during a routine appointment that the childbirth had to be done via C-section due to the child’s accelerated abdomen growth.
