A mother fabricated her 5-year-old son's cancer condition, and the reason for doing so is still unknown.
Monika Burgett, a mother of three children, was accused of fraud and inventing the symptoms of her youngest child last year, USA Today explains. The note states that her husband, Jonathan Burgett, believed for 10 years that his wife was a medical doctor. At the moment, it is unknown if it is for sure.
In a video that was filed in Hamilton County, Ohio court, the woman's husband says he filed for divorce just so he could take care of the three children. "I was hurt. I was confused. I did not understand why she had done it, "he explained.
Among the data that came up in the Monika trial are alleged child medical abuse, fraudulent GoFundMe pages, questions about her faith (whether she is Jewish or Catholic) and even the possibility that she has used another Social Security number, she says. the same newspaper.
Monika was found guilty of a misdemeanor of putting a minor at risk and a crime of telecommunications fraud.
During the trial, a child abuse expert at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center said this was a case of Munchausen syndrome by association. In fact, the minor went on to receive methadone and pain medication. The USA Today note indicates that Burgett went on to convince one of the hospital volunteers that her son could die. Prosecutors said the minor was being treated for constipation.
Many data from Burgett's life could not be confirmed by the researchers.
