GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - A Green Bay man was convicted Tuesday in the death of his 23-day-old son.

Jeremiah Thomas, 33, pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of reckless homicide. He faces a maximum sentence of 60 years in prison. Thomas was scheduled to begin trial Friday on a charge of intentional homicide, WLUK-TV reported.

Sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 23.



Police say rescue crews found the child unresponsive in Thomas’ west-side apartment in January 2018. The child suffered skull fractures, broken ribs and broken legs.
