Stephan family midwife/nurse called to testify on day one of re-trial
LETHBRIDGE- The second trial of an Alberta couple charged in the meningitis death of their toddler son in 2012 heard from a pair of witnesses yesterday who recommended they get medical help for their son.
David and Collet Stephan were granted a new trial by the Supreme Court last year, which overturned their conviction of failing to provide the necessaries of life for their 19-month-old son Ezekiel.
He was treated with alternative therapies until he stopped breathing and later died of bacterial meningitis.
