Ohio man pleads guilty to manslaughter in son's death


Date:

(MENAFN- Arab News) MARYSVILLE: A man who accidentally ran over his 4-year-old son in Ohio has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter count and a felony forgery charge.
Natividad de Jesus Hernandez entered the pleas Wednesday days before a scheduled Union County trial. The Columbus Dispatch reports the prosecutor and defense attorneys are recommending the 32-year-old be sentenced to six months in jail then five years' probation under a plea deal.
Authorities allege he hit the boy with a van on Dec. 26 2013. He originally pleaded not guilty to charges including aggravated vehicular homicide.
An immigration investigator says Hernandez is from El Salvador and used a permanent resident card with someone else's registration number. The government dropped federal immigration charges against him.
