WI - Ethan Hauschultz, 7, beaten and buried in "coffin of snow", Manitowoc, April 2018 *arrests*
5/14/21 Update: Present: Judge Jerilyn M. Dietz, attorney Donna Jean Kuchler with defendant Hauschultz, attorney Jacalyn Labre & Jill Vendetti appeared for the State of Wisconsin all via Zoom. Friday’s hearing was to specifically ask the defendant in open court to confirm his denial of a plea offer by the state. Hauschultz faces counts including intentionally contributing the delinquency of a child resulting in death, felony murder & 3 child abuse counts. District Attorney Jacalyn Labre said the state’s offer was for Hauschultz to plead to child neglect causing death & child neglect causing emotional harm, while the other 6 counts would be dismissed. The state offered to either argue for an unspecified prison term, or to argue for 14 years in prison & 6 years on extended supervision. But Hauschultz said he was not accepting the deals. Hauschultz returns to court July 15. The attorneys are expected to discuss the questions which will be posed to prospective jurors, among other topics.
