Shelton Woman Died of Blood Loss While Giving Birth

An autopsy has confirmed what Shelton police originally suspected when they found a woman and three newborn babies dead in a Redwood Circle home Tuesday.

Victoria Hope died from child birth while delivering the triplet boys.

The chief state medical examiner’s office has ruled the death was caused by exsanguination, or bleeding to death.

“It’s obvious there was no foul play,” Shelton Det. Ben Trabka said. “But we have to investigate all untimely deaths. We’ll try to do research. We try to get the family the answers loved ones deserve when someone passes away.”

Those answers include whether Hope, 26, told anyone she was pregnant, or sought medical attention, Trabka said.
