Development in the Vellis Infant Abuse Case




This was scanned from the Maariv newspaper of July 26, 2006, p. 19.

A few months ago, the death of an infant suspected as caused by parental abuse made headlines, caused riots in Meah Shea'arim and set off a flurry of blogging among Jews.

The story basically says that the former chief pathologist of Israel, Prof. Yehudah Hiss claims he found no external evidence (such as teeth marks, bruises, etc.) and the prosecution reps state: we never said his abuse left external marks but rather his abuse left internal injuries.
