Foster Mom Sued in Baby's Suffocation

A baby who was removed from her biological mother because of child welfare workers' concerns about the mother's drug use died while in foster care, reports the St. Petersburg Times. Now, a St. Petersburg attorney has filed a lawsuit on behalf of the infant's estate against the foster mother and the foster care agency, accusing them of negligence. The baby suffocated while sleeping in the foster mother's bed, an act prohibited by Florida foster care regulations. The foster mother lost her foster care license as a result of the incident, according to the St. Petersburg Times.
