Could attempted murder charges have been filed in Kristen Donay's child neglect case?
Based on the discussion between host Jesse Weber and former child abuse prosecutor Josh Korman, the possibility of attempted murder charges was raised in this severe child neglect case. The infant was found in such a malnourished state that medical personnel compared the condition to Holocaust victims due to starvation. However, Korman indicated he wasn't familiar enough with Indiana law specifically to determine if attempted murder charges would have been applicable in this case. This legal uncertainty highlights the complex nature of prosecuting severe neglect cases and the different thresholds jurisdictions may have for escalating charges from neglect to attempted murder.
