In May 1987, 2 1/2-year-old Eric Bernstein of Broomall in Marple Township, Pennsylvania, was shot fatally in the head and back with a .32-caliber handgun in his home. Eric had been born nine and a half weeks premature in July 1984 and suffered developmental delays after a lack of oxygen at birth.

His parents had sought medical and therapeutic help, including a demanding therapy regimen that required five-minute sessions every twenty minutes; the family received strong community support at the time, with more than 300 people offering assistance.Eric’s mother, 41-year-old Irene Bernstein, surrendered to Marple Township police and was charged with homicide in connection with the shooting. She was released on $25,000 cash bond.

Did anyone in the Broomall area at the time have information about Eric’s care or the events that led to this death?
