Madison Man Pleads Not Guilty to Murder in Child’s Death
MADISON, S.D. (AP) — A Madison man charged in the death of a 3-year-old boy has pleaded not guilty to murder and manslaughter.
Twenty-one-year-old Jacob Meinders was indicted by a grand jury last Thursday on several charges including second-degree murder and first-degree manslaughter. The Daily Leader reports that he entered his pleas on Monday.
Meinders is charged in a late-September incident in which the boy was found injured at a Madison residence and taken to a Sioux Falls hospital, where he later died.
