\nA Kentucky man whose then-girlfriend’s infant son died while in his care has pleaded guilty to an amended charge.<\/p>\n

Joseph Scott Overfield 35, pleaded guilty this week to first-degree wanton endangerment, amended from first-degree criminal abuse. The mother of the child, 26 year-old Jailynna Lord, had pleaded guilty to a first-degree wanton endangerment charge amended from criminal abuse in June and was sentenced to five years in prison.<\/p>\n

Henderson Police detective Tracy Green says Lord’s 5-month-old child, Jordyn, died in August 2016. An autopsy revealed multiple fractured ribs and a fractured clavicle estimated to have occurred 6 to 8 weeks before the baby’s death. Overfield was accused of sitting on the baby.<\/p>\n

Lord and Overfield were arrested in November 2016. Overfield is scheduled to be sentenced January 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
