MICHAEL BROWN Jr - 7 months (2008) - Tolland CT

Tolland CT ---- A judge has found a Connecticut woman not
guilty of manslaughter in the death of her 7-month-old foster child
nearly two years ago.

Rockville Superior Court Judge William Bright Jr. also ruled
Monday that Suzanne Listro is not guilty of risk of injury to a
minor in the death of Michael Brown Jr.

He said he did not know if the death was an accident but could
not determine without a reasonable doubt that Listro inflicted the
injuries.

The child died May 19, 2008, of blunt traumatic head
injury.
Listro, a former employee of the state Department of Children and
Families, had been accused of killing him by violently shaking him.

The 44-year-old Listro said he died after falling from bed.
