THE STATE PATHOLOGIST SAYS A GREENVILLE BABY DIED FROM THERMAL INJURIES.
3-YEAR-OLD TRISTON ROBINSON DIED TUESDAY NIGHT AFTER HIS MOTHER, TERRIE, ALLEGEDLY PLACED HIM IN AN ELECTRIC OVEN. THE STATE PATHOLOGIST RULED TRISTON'S CAUSE OF DEATH AS THERMAL INJURIES, CAUSED BY HEAT FROM THE OVEN, AND HIS TIME OF DEATH AT 10PM. GREENVILLE POLICE FOUND TRISTON'S BODY IN THE OVEN AROUND MIDNIGHT. THE PRELIMINARY AUTOPSY REPORT ALSO STATES THERE WAS NO VISIBLE FORCED TRAUMA TO TRISTON'S BODY. THE STATE PATHOLOGIST COULD NOT DETERMINE IF TRISTON WAS CONSCIOUS OR NOT WHEN PLACED INTO THE ELECTRIC OVEN. FURTHER TESTS WILL HAVE TO BE DONE TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION. MEANWHILE, TRISTON'S 24-YEAR-OLD MOTHER TERRIE, REMAINS JAILED ON A 5 MILLION DOLLAR BOND.
