Detective Sgt. Ed Gorski continued the investigation which led to the findings of a two-year-old child that was present in the home when the event took place. The Division of Child Protection and Permanency responded and eventually took custody of the child.
O’Brien, who is expected to recover, was charged with endangering the welfare of a child, a second degree crime. Bail was set at $75,000. The child was not harmed.
The charges and allegations contained in the complaint are merely accusations and the defendant is considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
