Husband/father Jon Margolin sobbed as he told ZWN that his wife was terrified by the recent baby food scare involving Yum-Yum brand food. He said she called him at work shortly before her death. "She said that little Shawna had been unresponsive in her crib in the morning, in a sort of daze, but then had seemed to recover. Gemma was hysterical. She was convinced that they both had mortosis. Before I could get home, she jumped."

Family and friends have confirmed that Margolin had been suffering for some time with depression and was taking antidepressants at the time of her death.

Building owner Ed Lee said that the apartment building is completely safe. "The Margolin's had minimal contact with other residents. There is no need to quarantine the building."

Neighbor Anna Benz said she had warned Ms. Margolin that no baby food was safe. "She threw out all her jars of Yum-Yum brand, but her husband kept insisting that all other brands were safe. I told her to stop feeding Shawna any brands."

In addition to Yum-Yum, B.F. Quality Foods, the company accused of making mortosis-tainted baby food, makes Morning Surprise, Midday Munchies and Miles o' Smiles brand baby foods. It is not known whether the baby was fed any of these brands, all of which have been recalled.

In a press conference yesterday, Tippecanoe County Inspector of Health Joe Flenge made an impassioned plea to federal health authorities to clarify the baby food recall. "No one knows what brands are safe," Flenge said. "There is no evidence that the baby was even infected. If the baby was infected, then the federal health authorities, who have been very unclear about which brands may be tainted, need to clarify matters. We need much more complete and accurate information. "

The Fort Wayne-based B.F. Quality Foods, is facing mounting law suits, and rumors of an impending class action suit sent B.F. Quality Foods stocks into a second tail spin today.

When asked if the two bodies were infected with mortosis, authorities will only say that the investigation is ongoing.
