Prosecutors allege that Dr. Hong-An Jan administered a powerful narcotic instead of a local anesthetic, then failed to act when the infant showed classic signs of drug toxicity: profound lethargy, poor feeding, and alarming unresponsiveness. According to the civil lawsuit, the parents returned to the clinic desperate for reassurance, only to be told their baby\u2019s symptoms were \u201cnormal\u201d and sent home without tests, monitoring, or urgent care.<\/p>\n<p>By the next day, their son had stopped breathing. Hospital staff could not revive him. An autopsy later linked his bronchopneumonia to drug intoxication, a detective calling the death \u201cnegligent and preventable.\u201d Now, Dr. Jan faces an involuntary manslaughter charge and a suspended license, while the grieving parents pursue a wrongful death and malpractice suit, seeking answers \u2014 and a measure of justice for their little boy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The loss of a two-day-old baby after a routine circumcision has left a family shattered and a community horrified.
