Toddler Found Alive In Morgue, 5 Hours After Doc Declared Him Dead

An unbelievable story out of Arizona, after an emergency room doctor pronounced 1-year-old Vincent Fiordilino dead after he fell into the family pool and was underwater for more than 5 minutes. Police body cam footage shows nurses, the family and even officers question whether the boy was actually dead after they saw breathing and a faint pulse. Police say the doctor “arrogantly” insisted the toddler was deceased, and it wasn’t until more than 5 hours later that a transporter from the medical examiner’s office found the toddler alive in the morgue. As the family prepares to sue the doctor and the hospital, prosecutors are considering filing felony child abuse charges against the parents, who were apparently smoking marijuana when the toddler fell in the pool.
