Jashawn McBride was a two-month-old infant who died in Chicago on November 5, 2014, from severe starvation. Born healthy at 8 pounds, he weighed only 4 pounds, 13 ounces at the time of his death and investigators said his body showed signs of extreme malnutrition, with bones visible beneath his skin.

His mother, Shawnquail Minnis, was later charged with first-degree murder and held on a $2 million bond in connection with allegations that she allowed the infant to starve. The case drew attention because of the severity of the neglect described.

If anyone knew Jashawn or has information about his care in the weeks before his death, please share what you know with investigators.
