Kevin Degutis was just five-months-old when he was found unresponsive at home and died in hospital - hours later his mum Viktorija Mardosiene passed away after collapsing.
A five-month-old baby boy who tragically died after being found unresponsive at home was "loved" by his mum - who died hours after her child and their family will never know what caused his death.
An inquest into their deaths, which concluded on Thursday, heard from 32-year-old Viktorija's sister Tatjana Abraitiene, who described her as "so kind and full of love". David Maher, a team manager at Staffordshire County Council's children's services department, said the case file had been opened three weeks after Kevin's father had contacted police to say he was concerned for his family's welfare.
"The social worker's report summarised they decided to close Kevin's case. The father declined tier-two support and any service up to this point had been voluntary. There was no evidence Kevin had been exposed to harm. The report said the house was tidy and the house was well-stocked with nappies and food."Sadly, he died only four to five days after the case was closed on August 3.
"Crews attended to find Kevin showing signs of death. He was rushed to hospital and sadly death was declared in the early hours. Viktorija was breathalyzed and was found to be slightly over the drink driving limit. Viktorija was distraught and later that day she collapsed and died."A pathologist's report could not identify whether Kevin's death was natural or unnatural.
Mr Richie said: "The samples of blood and urine had been disposed of so it was not possible to rerun the tests again. However, due to the sophisticated nature of the tests, toxicologists were able to conduct tests on the data involved.
