The Daily News was among the first to bring you the news of the death of Sherin Mathews, who, was found dead last month near her family’s home. Mathews, was found dead days after having disappeared from her backyard, where, she had been forced to go for not drinking more milk at the orders of her adopted father.
The revelation of notification to CPS of possible child abuse reportedly came from a doctor. During a hearing this week, Dr. Suzanne Dakil, testified in open court that she notified CPS at least twice that Mathews was in danger. In her testimony, she cited that during at least two examinations she found bruises and welts on the child that indicated she was being abused. After the reported discovery, Dakil, testified that she immediately notified CPS “because it appeared that the adopted child had been abused, and, on multiple occasions”.
In our original reports, we, discovered that her father may have had something to do with her death. On the night she disappeared, she, was forced to stand outside in the early morning hours of that day. Police reports and indictment documents for Wesley Mathews show that he is being charged with numerous charges, while, Sini is being charged with endangering and abandoning a child.
Wesley, per newly surfaced CPS and police documents, is being charged with felony assault/injury to a child. The admission that he “physically assisted” her in drinking the milk she didn’t want, ehum, landed him with a felony charge per the documents. CPS now says that both parents are “facing some pretty serious charges” and one official who agreed to speak on the condition of remaining anonymous confirmed that “if found, they will be charged with her death. We will get to the bottom of this”.
