LONDON, May 14, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – The question of what caused the death of UK toddler Alfie Evans may never be known. The UK High Court refused today to order a post-mortem examination of the toddler’s remains at the request of a pro-life advocate.

John Allman made an “urgent application” to the UK High Court in Westminster today to prevent the destruction of the late toddler’s remains without a prior post-mortem examination and toxicology report. The baby’s remains are scheduled to be interred today in a private ceremony.

Alfie died at 2:30 AM on April 28th at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool. His death followed a four-day battle for life after his ventilator was abruptly removed. An Italian newspaper reported that a nurse administered “four drugs” to Alfie two hours before he died. Two sources close to Alfie’s family told LifeSiteNews that these were “injections.”

Allman went to court after corresponding with the Liverpool coroner, André Rebello OBE. On May 8th, Rebello stated that Alfie Evans died from natural causes and that he had no duty to investigate

“Alfie Evans died from a natural cause of death,” the coroner wrote, “and there was no duty for a coroner to investigate under the Coroner and Justice Act 2009 or under any other legislation.”

Rebello said he did not have to investigate because a medical certificate and been issued, and he was satisfied that there was nothing unnatural in the infant’s death.

He was executed by the British government, they just don’t use guillotines anymore.

May God take him and keep him.

What a travesty to treat a child this way. So very sad. God bless his parents and family. May those who are responsible for this death reap what they’ve down.

Clearly he was killed by a government death panel in a single payer “health” plan.

Could the parents have gotten their own autopsy? Or was that also forbidden by the government?

God bless this little Soul in Heaven. I’d never seen a baby so young - or a picture of one - whose face already evinced such a decided and lovely personality.

We must make sure Alfie did not die in vain. (Same with Charlie Gard.) They must become the faces of government healthcare. This is what universal healthcare is.
