A 21-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman are expected to appear before Livingston Sheriff Court tomorrow in connection with the death of three-month-old Sophia Williams.
Sophia was taken to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh on May 30 after taking unwell within a facility for homeless families in West Main Street in Broxburn and sadly passed away six days later.
Detective Inspector Rory Hamilton of the Major Investigations Team said: “An 18-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man have been arrested in connection with the death of a three-month-old baby girl from Broxburn.
“A subsequent investigation was launched into her death, led by the Major Investigations Team (MIT), and as a result of this effort two people have now been charged.
“They are expected to appear before Livingston Sheriff Court on Friday, October 28.”
