Florida Mom Found Guilty Of Killing 18-Month-Old Baby With Raw Vegan Diet

A mother in Florida has been found guilty in the case of her son’s death from malnutrition — after admitting to feeding her children an all-raw vegetable and fruit diet.

In September 2019 police were called to the family home of Sheila and Ryan O’Leary after reports that their toddler was not breathing.

The mother had fed her son earlier that morning for a minute and noticed he was having trouble breathing — but instead of contacting 911 immediately, she and her husband went back to sleep.

According to the Cape Coral Police Department, paramedics were summoned to the home hours later where they pronounced 18-month-old Ezra Sage O’Leary dead at the scene.
