Jury: Father didn't shake his son

A jury on Tuesday cleared a Warren County man who was accused of

inflicting brain damage on his son by shaking the then 5-month-old baby.

Carey was charged in March 1996 with second-degree aggravated

assault and endangering the welfare of a child a week after his son

suffered seizures and was rushed to the hospital. Doctors at Wood

University Medical Center detected hemorrhages behind the

5-month-old boy`s eyes and determined the cause was shaken-baby

syndrome. The baby had received an immunization earlier that morning,

which defense attorneys argued was the cause of the seizures and the

bleeding behind the boy`s eyes.

" I think the weight of the world was lifted from the Carey`s shoulders, "

defense attorney Joe Krakora said outside the courthouse in Flemington

on Tuesday after the 12-day trial. " They`re extremely relieved and

tremendously grateful. " Carey, a former Union County police officer who

used to live in Readington, now resides in Washington Township in Warren

County. The son, who is nearly 3, is developmentally disabled. It took

the Superior Court jury nearly two full days to reach a decision. Jurors

returned to the Judge Marilyn Rhine Herr`s courtroom three times to

watch videotaped testimony from witnesses from both the prosecution and

the defense. Assistant Prosecutor Marcia Crowe could not be reached for

comment Tuesday.

The baby was born in October 1995, and was first brought to the hospital

on Dec. 11, 1995. He was treated for vomiting and irritability, and his

pediatrician determined that the boy had a nonspecific viral condition

and an allergy to milk. He was brought back to the hospital on March 22,

1996, by paramedics after he suffered a seizure. The boy had received an

inoculation a few hours earlier, which witnesses for both sides agreed

could trigger a seizure in babies who had suffered head trauma.

Vomiting, lethargy, increasing head circumference, seizures, apnea and

coma are all symptoms of shaken-baby syndrome. According to medical

records, the boy was demonstrating some of those symptoms during his

December 1995 visit to the hospital. But Krakora argued that these

symptoms also could have been a sign that the boy had some other

neurological problem that wasn`t picked up by doctors.
