A nine-month-old baby boy tragically starved to death in an apartment two weeks after his mother took her own life with a drugs overdose.
Little Casey Kessler was found dead in the living room of the flat in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, after a concerned relative visited the home.
His mother Sara, who had not been in contact with her family for almost a fortnight, is believed to have died a week or two earlier.

Neighbour William Gonzalez had heard the boy crying inside the flat, but did not think anything of it.
He told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: “If I was closer to the noise, I would have done something. I didn’t know. I feel so guilty. I feel so bad.
“The thought of that little kid running around after she died, looking for food. That’s what I’m upset about. It’s such a helpless feeling.”
On Friday, Assistant Allegheny County police Superintendent James Morton said that there was no sign of foul play.
Officers believe Sara died after taking a drugs overdose.
Sara’s mother died of natural causes in the same apartment in November and no one else lived on their floor.
Gonzalez and another tenant, Elizabeth Freismuth, said Kessler struggled to cope with her mother’s death.
