New Details in Jackson County Child's Drowning Death
JACKSON COUNTY - Court records reveal more details about the drowning death of a Jackson county child.
Court documents obtained by the Quad City Times say Danielle Lynn Holdgrafer was doing "dunking activities" while bathing the young boy. That involved holding the child's head under water. She faces first degree murder charges. Documents also say the father, Andrew Holdgrafer, did nothing to stop the dunking. Paperwork also says he had prior knowledge of abuse, and "failed to take action". He's charged with child endangerment resulting in death. Four-year-old Colin Holdgrafer died Saturday in Andrew. His father previously told police Colin died in the bathtub. The Holdgrafers had five children, two including Collin were adopted. The other four are now in foster care. More Good Stuff |
