Black Parents Regain Custody After Baby Taken Over Rickets, But Mother Still Faces Charges

During the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul boxing match last November, Quentin and Alandria Seabron faced a crisis when they discovered their daughter, Jirah, had a limp arm. Alandria recounted that Jirah was struggling to latch while breastfeeding and failing to gain weight. An expert suggested decreasing breastfeeding due to overproduction and recommended a latching device. Alandria described a distressing moment when she had to separate Jirah from her breast due to excessive milk flow.Concerned for Jirah’s wellbeing, they took her to a Dallas hospital where X-rays revealed a broken arm and 16 internal fractures. The hospital staff alerted Child Protective Services, leading to a controversial case against Alandria. Although Jirah was returned in March, Alandria was indicted for child injury, with allegations of recklessness. Their attorney criticized the systemic failures that worsened their plight.
