Mother accused of murder 'didn't see' son's injuries

Story here. Excerpt:

'In a videotaped conversation at Baltimore County police headquarters hours after her young son was declared dead in 2007, Susan J. Griffin veered from certainty to indecision when attempting to describe Andrew's condition in the weeks leading to his death.

"He's got no health problems that I'm aware of — well, he does," Griffin told a detective in a rapid chatter, acknowledging the boy's weight loss but not his emaciated condition and the wounds covering his body, which had alarmed the staff of the emergency room at St. Joseph Medical Center when his father brought him in, lifeless, the day after Christmas.
...
"I know he's small -- he's about 10, 15 pounds off," Griffin said. And yet, she noted, "Andrew eats everything in the house." Yes, she conceded, he had "little scratches" on his body, "but nothing major."
...
An autopsy revealed the cause of death to be starvation.
...
Referring to the boy's injuries, Griffin said his mouth "looks really nasty," with signs that a tooth had penetrated his lip, but blamed it on the child's habit of biting himself. She said some of the scratches might have been made by one of Andrew's brothers.'
