Parents accused of starving baby

A Tuscon, Arizona couple has been arrested and charged after their 6-month-old infant daughter was found dead.

The parents Terri and Scott sullivan are in the Pima County Jail. They are each charged with one count of child abuse.

It was at an east side apartment on South Pantano Road where police say, they found 6-week-old Kimberly Sullivan dead.

Victor Stevens was moving out of the apartment next door. He says he saw the father try to save the baby’s life.

“I saw and heard ‘the baby’s not breathing the baby’s not breathing.’ I really didn’t know what was going on, and I saw the father trying to give the baby mouth to mouth.”

Investigators say, at birth, Kimberly weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces. When she died she weighed 5-pounds, 12 ounces her skin was sagging and they could see her ribs.
