Crime Stories with Nancy Grace
Exorcism, Swaddling, Food Restriction Leads to Death of 4-Year-Old Boy
08 Mar 2023
A text from his wife makes Joseph Wilson call 911 to report that his adopted son Skyler is having a seizure. That text message, however, came in hours earlier. Jodi Wilson wrote "Something happened while swaddling Skyler." Included in the text was a picture of Skyler wrapped in a sheet, face down, and duct taped to the floor. Skyler was taken to Brenner Children's hospital where a doctor explained to a detective that Skyler had a Hypoxic Brain Injury, caused by a lack of oxygen getting to his brain. The doctor said that Skyler’s brain injuries were consistent with “too much restriction” used during the so-called “swaddling” technique.
