CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Supreme Court justices will hear arguments about whether the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources is liable in the death of an infant in Kanawha County in 2010.
The case is a wrongful death suit initiated by Eric Gillispie, the biological father of Raynna Rae Boggs, who was 3 months old when she died in May 2010 after her mother passed out on top of her while under the influence of drugs and alcohol at her home in South Charleston.
