A 30-year-old woman was arrested
Thursday on suspicion of trying to kill her three-year-old
daughter in Rome's Bambino Gesù Hospital by giving her sedatives
which caused two cardio-respiratory arrests, sources said. The
woman, who lives in Naples, was arrested on suspicion of
attempted murder. The girl was saved by the prompt intervention
of hospital staff in two separate incidents in December. The
woman was reportedly trying to get her husband's attention,
sources said, after recent tension. Police said they suspected
the woman had already tried to do something similar to her other
daughter, aged one, when she was in a Naples hospital.
