Judge allows charges in prayer death case
A judge today ruled the reckless homicide charges stand against parents accused of praying instead of seeking a doctor’s care as their 11-year-old daughter died.
Marathon County Circuit Judge Vincent Howard made his ruling today.
The decision is expected to be appealed.
Dale and Leilani Neumann have pleaded not guilty to second-degree reckless homicide. Their attorneys wanted the charges dismissed on constitutional grounds.
[...]At the heart of the dispute is two Wisconsin laws. One says it is not child abuse to treat illness through prayer alone. The second is a homicide law that makes no exception for prayer.
