Parents Charged In Beaten-Baby Death

A Flushing couple was charged on March 15 in the death of their two-month-old daughter, Annie Li, authorities said.

The baby was taken to a local hospital where doctors said she suffered a broken skull and that she had been violently shaken. The girl was declared brain dead four days later.
