NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) — The jury trial for a Norfolk father charged in connection with the death of his 4-year-old son began Tuesday.

During the prosecution’s opening statements for Smith’s trial on Tuesday, prosecutors argued Smith knew his girlfriend’s 14-year-old son was abusing 4-year-old Larkin. Prosecutors said this abuse directly led to Larkin’s death.
The defense’s opening statement focused on showing Smith was a loving and caring father who had no idea 14-year old Bolsinger-Hartshorn was capable of such abuse.
Next, prosecutors called their first witness.
First, the court heard from the Norfolk firefighter who responded to the 911 call. He said Larkin was lying on the living room couch when he arrived. The child wasn’t breathing and had no pulse.

Next, prosecutors called on Carrie Landis, a family professional in charge of supervised visits.

Smith’s trial will continue Wednesday.
