Unknown cause of two year old boy's mysterious death | 60 Minutes Australia

One day four years ago something truly awful happened to two-and-a-half-year-old Darcy Atkinson. His mother left him in the care of someone she trusted without question – her then boyfriend, Adam Taylor. But within a few hours her precious Darcy was rushed to hospital in a critical condition. He died the next day. The New South Wales Coroner tried to find out the circumstances of Darcy’s death but was frustrated by Taylor’s evasiveness. The Coroner said he was an unimpressive witness who probably had more of a story to tell. For Darcy’s grief-stricken family who are still desperate for answers, Adam Taylor’s reluctance to provide more information means they may never find out what really happened to their little boy.
