Prosecutor: no charges after toddler declared dead was alive 5 hours later

Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell declined to prosecute the parents of an 18-month-old who survived a February 8 pool drowning despite being pronounced dead, citing the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt standard, childproof locks, and no evidence of impairment. The decision shifts legal scrutiny to Mercy Gilbert Medical Center, where officers reported seeing signs of life before the child was moved to a morgue — a potential medical malpractice and regulatory liability exposure.
