Abstract
The authors present a case of asphyxia of an infant who was placed in an infant swing for the night. The parent’s original story of the circumstances of the death does not correspond with the physical findings at the time of autopsy. This case reviews the guidelines and importance of infant death scene investigation and procedures to report misuse or malfunction of a consumer product.
