Alex Radita looked like a “skeleton” when police arrived at his parents northwest Calgary home May 7, 2013 court heard Wednesday.

The 15-year-old weighed just 37 pounds when he was found dead.

The first police officer to respond testified Wednesday. He said he could see every one of Alex’s ribs and thought the teen weighed just 20 pounds.

The boy’s parents, Emil and Rodica Radita, are on trial accused of first-degree murder in connection with his death.

The prosecution alleges the couple intended to kill their son by denying him treatment for his diabetes.

The medical investigator first sent to the Radita home, Shauna Mitchell, testified there were numerous people praying when she arrived.

The couple told first responders Alex was breathing when they checked on him at 6 p.m. that night, four hours before EMS was called.

But court heard he may have been dead up to 36 hours before anyone called for help.

When the Radita’s were asked about Alex’s medical history, investigators were initially told he had no chronic health problems, but was sick for three days with a sore throat and diarrhea for one month.

But after further questioning, Rodica conceded her son had been diagnosed with diabetes at age three.

Court heard Rodica didn’t believe the diagnosis but she told investigators she gave him insulin anyway.

An autopsy revealed Radita died from a bacterial sepsis (Staphyloccus Aureus) from complications of neglect and starvation, due to Type 1 diabetes

The trial continues Thursday with testimony from the medical examiner.

CALGARY — Family members prayed over a starved, diabetic teen for about two hours after he stopped breathing before calling for help, a medical investigator testified Wednesday.

Emil Radita, 59, and his wife Rodica Radita, 53, are accused of first-degree murder in the 2013 death of their 15-year-old son Alexandru. Court has already heard the boy weighed less than 37 pounds and died from complications due to untreated diabetes and starvation.

Alexandru was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when he was three years old while the family lived in British Columbia.

Shauna Mitchell, a registered nurse who is an investigator for the medical examiner's office, testified that initially Rodica Radita denied her son had any chronic health problems. The mother said he had been sick for about a month with the flu, diarrhea and a yeast infection in his throat that required he be fed baby food.

"She said he was a normal child who was walking and talking prior to becoming ill," Mitchell said.

The mother later admitted that her son had been diagnosed with diabetes and, although she didn't believe he was ill, she was giving him insulin, Mitchell said.

The nurse said she asked the parents when Alexandru was last seen alive.

"They said they went to church, I think it was after 1800 hours, and came home about 2000 hours. That's when the father said he wasn't breathing," said Mitchell.

"So they were praying and they didn't call EMS until sometime around 2200 hours. There were multiple people in the residence when I got there that were, from my understanding, part of their church and they were in the home praying together."

Mitchell said she was shocked at the state of Alexandru's body.

"He basically looked like a skeleton with skin," she said. "His skull was very, very bony. You could count every rib. You could see every rib. His arms were extremely skinny as were his legs. He had open and dried lesions all over his body."

The first police officer called to the family home said there were about 20 people there when he arrived.

Const. Larry Pugliese said emergency medical personnel were attending to the boy when he entered the bedroom.

"The boy was extremely thin and I thought at the time maybe 20 pounds. His shirt was off and he had ribs protruding from his body. Also lesions on his neck," said Pugliese.

"When I looked at the boy, my first instinct is he's dead."

Pugliese said he spoke to the boy's father, who confirmed the teen had been diagnosed with diabetes and that there was insulin in the refrigerator.

The father also told the officer his son had refused to go to the hospital because of a bad experience he had when he was a toddler.

信了耶稣就不可救药了。分不清所相信的和事实的区别，说话没有一点逻辑，总是循环论证。

这样愚昧的宗教产生了科学。

这个男孩子的父母选择这么做太愚蠢了！其实这是他们自己太偏激钻牛角尖，害了孩子。据我所知渥太华有个基督教的神父太太得了癌症，照样进医院接受治疗，现在好很多，基本控制了。有天主教神父自己生病，一样进医院的。这不能代表大多数教徒的选择，只能说明有一些特别偏执的人，愚昧无知。
我是就事论事，和宗教信仰无关。

伊斯兰国也和伊斯兰教无关。这种论调在各自宗教都很普遍。

这个搭不上吧，如果有人说某某佛教徒选择放弃治疗，那整个佛教就是愚昧无知了？这挨不上吧……就像有的中国人做了素质低的事情，那所有中国人都素质低。不见得，林子大了什么鸟都有。
个别人这么做是不对的，但是不能因为这个原因，就一杆子打翻整条船。

佛教徒这样做的很少。因为佛教讲空，不追求神迹。
通过祈祷治病这是在追求神迹，基督徒一贯追求神迹。

不是所有的基督徒都这样，这个坛子里有人偏激不代表所有基督徒都一样。我认识很多基督徒，有病都去医院，还没听说谁有病只祷告，不去医院的。如果真这样做，是这个人自己脑子有病。

这个坛子里有基督徒特别偏激，够烦人的，这不代表所有人都这样。和这种人较劲那是太闲了...........
所以我不再关注这个主题了。

当然不是所有的基督徒这样。但是天天讲神迹的宗教，信徒中这样做的比例一定要高。
