Lowell baby allegedly shaken by father dies

There has been an increase in "other than honorable discharges" from the military. So much for "resilience" training. It also happened the same year suicides tied to military service broke records. The same year veterans seeking help after military sexual abuse went up to 85,000 going to the VA. Attempted suicides went up as well as veterans going to the VA for help to stay alive after combat. So how is it that something like this keeps happening?

A baby who was allegedly assaulted by his father in ­Lowell last week has died of his injuries, the ­Middlesex district attorney said Friday.

The 2-month-old child, ­William Berry, was pronounced dead Friday at Tufts Floating Hospital for Children after suffering injuries consistent with nonaccidental trauma, said Stephanie Chelf Guyotte, a spokeswoman for Middlesex District Attorney Marian T. ­Ryan.

The boy’s father, Christopher Berry, 22, of Lowell, pleaded not guilty Monday in Lowell District Court to charges of ­assault and battery on a child causing substantial bodily injury, Guyotte said.

Prosecutors said at the time that they would pursue more serious charges against Berry if the child died.
