Toddler found alive in hospital morgue after being mistakenly pronounced dead by doctor
An 18-month-old toddler was mistakenly pronounced dead by a doctor after drowning during a Super Bowl party but was later found alive in the hospital morgue. The error occurred when the doctor ignored a nurse's claim of detecting a pulse and refused to continue life-saving measures, leading to the child being placed in the morgue before being revived. The parents, who admitted to using marijuana and neglecting the child, may face child abuse charges.
