A 12-year-old Texas girl died Monday after her mother and stepfather failed to seek medical attention for four days following life-threatening injuries, instead attempting to nurse her back to health with smoothies, authorities said.
Miranda Sipps, a cheerleader at Jourdanton Junior High School in Christine, Texas, was found in critical condition when her mother called 911 on Monday evening, according to a statement from the Atascosa County Sheriff’s Office. Christine is a small community about 45 miles south of San Antonio.
An investigation led by the sheriff’s office revealed that Sipps had suffered from severe and life-threatening injuries the previous Thursday. For the following four days, Sipps’ mother and stepfather failed to get her medical assistance even though she was largely unconscious. No other children were in the home.
Soward said that Sipps’ parents attempted to treat her injuries by giving her smoothies with vitamins. As the girl’s condition worsened and she began having trouble breathing on Monday evening, her mother finally called 911.

I wonder what the “life threatening” injuries were...
Great reporting. Severe and life threatening injuries but no indication of the cause.
Got a good idea that the stepfather is the cause.
Talk about an article lacking important details.
Modern journalist pretenders NEVER give information that could counter the latest leftist “cloud O-lies”. Rest assured that some politically correct idea is being protected.
Not related to the school (per the article ), so probably not related to cheerleading practice.
Very strange. And completely stupid to try and feed an unconscious person smoothies.
The cause of Sipps’ injuries remains under investigation.
Soward declined to provide further details, stating only
that they were not related to her school, which had begun
on Monday. The final autopsy report is pending.
The way this article is written garners immediate distrust of NBC News and Susan Baek.
Oh Dear Lord. That poor little girl; never stood a chance from adults who had no idea how to take proper care of her. I wonder if the parent(s) were the cause of her injuries . . .
If it were 2020 I suppose this would be a COVID death.
If it were 2022 I suppose this would be a vaccine death.
But it’s 2024 so I suppose the stepfather did it.
Harris voters
Chances are the step-father is an illegal.
I think you are straight on about the Perp. Now
what we’ll hear is to be determined. I hope that
God allows/helps the legal system to find the true
causes, etc.
Stoopid young people having kids in this day and age. What could go wrong?
And who caused them.
My suspicions immediately fall on any parents who won't take their unconscious child for medical treatment.
Dumb parents. Darwin Award.

The girl, adult female, male all have
different last names......
“Harris voters”
My guess is they’ve believed conspiracy theories about the evils of modern medicine and doctors. “Smoothies” are code words for herbal treatments
