The parents of a baby who died at Nottingham City Hospital say they have to live with the pain of “never knowing what truly happened” because potential evidence was destroyed when staff dissected the placenta.
Quinn Lias Parker was born on July 14 2021 but died two days later. Parents Emmie Studencki and Ryan Parker have spoken out after more details about what happened were made public in a Coroner’s report.
After Quinn’s birth, Ms Studencki’s placenta was sent from the maternity unit to pathology at Nottingham City Hospital, where it was dissected – meaning it was cut up for examination.
