A Georgia couple’s heartbreak over the loss of their newborn who was decapitated at birth has been compounded by a “clout chasing” doctor they hired to perform the baby’s autopsy, according to their attorneys and a new lawsuit.

Jessica Ross and Treveon Isaiah Taylor are suing Dr Jackson Gates, an Atlanta-based doctor who they say recorded the autopsy of their baby without their permission and shared graphic videos online to his Instagram account.
