Breaking: Toronto man guilty in beating death of two-year-old
A Toronto jury has convicted a 30-year-old man of the reduced charge of manslaughter in the beating death of two-year-old Wynonna Noganosh, rejecting the defence claim the girl died in an accident.on March 19, 2021, and said the injuries that killed her were caused after he accidentally fell on top of her and, later, when she fell in the bathtub.In its verdict, the jury also rejected the more serious charge of second-degree murder.
“If you think what he did was accidental, as he described, he is not guilty of murder. If you think what he did was an intentional assault, but that he did not know that death was likely as a result, then he is guilty of manslaughter,” Mergler said during this closing address Wednesday. Jurors retired Thursday and delivered their verdict midday Friday.
Her injuries were also inconsistent with a “slip and fall in the tub,” since she was unable to “stand at this point.”
