A Florida couple who fed their children only raw fruits and vegetables was charged Wednesday with murder for the death of their 18-month-old son, authorities said.

When questioned by Cape Coral police, the couple stated they were vegan and fed their four children a raw fruit-and-vegetable diet, which mainly consisted of mangoes, rambutans, bananas, and avocados. The couple also stated the toddler’s diet was supplemented with breast milk, but admitted he hadn’t eaten solid food in the week before his death, the affidavit states.
