DETROIT, Mich. (WXYZ) — A 9-year-old Detroit boy who prosecutors say died from untreated pneumonia also had multiple broken bones at the time of his death, scars all over his body and was likely in agonizing pain.
That’s according to testimony provided Tuesday before 36 th District Court Judge Shawn Jacque in the preliminary exam of Sherman and Sampagvita Jones, the stepparents of Owen Roserio.
