A mum who drank so much she passed out and suffocated her baby - two years after she lost another baby in similar circumstances - has avoided jail in Switzerland after judges cited her mental health as a cause for concern.
Claire Ross, 39, passed out drunk on top of her baby in July 2020, resulting in her oldest kid, then six, discovering a horrific scene.
However, today, Ross was cleared of negligent homicide after a trial before a tribunal of judges in the town of Nyon, Switzerland.
The tribunal handed down its judgment this afternoon at the Criminal Court of La Côte, which concluded she was not criminally responsible for her actions and ordered her to undergo compulsory treatment.
