MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ) – A man was ordered to stand trial on Thursday that’s being charged in connection to a toddler’s death.
Court Records show that Eduardo Gamez of Manitowoc faces two counts of chronic child neglect.
He waived a preliminary hearing on Thursday and is scheduled to enter a plea on October 29.
The charges stem from an incident in July when a toddler in Gamez’s and Jamie Schrank’s care suffered extensive bruising and died from internal and external injuries.
Schrank is also being charged with chronic child neglect and has pleaded not guilty, but no trial date has been set.
Neither of the individuals has been charged specifically with the boy’s death, however.
