Milton man found guilty of assaulting 3-month-old
MILTON, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- The Saratoga County District Attorney's Office announced on Wednesday that Jacob Krall, 21, of Milton, was found guilty of multiple charges in an assault case. Krall was arrested back in March of 2023.
The initial indictment alleged that Krall assaulted a three-month-old baby in his family at his home in Milton. Emergency medical responders reportedly found the child unresponsive, resulting in the victim being taken to Albany Medical Center to be treated for brain injuries for over a week.
"Bureau Chief Jennifer Buckley meticulously presented the complex medical and physical evidence to the jury, which demonstrated that defendant Krall had caused physical injuries, including bilateral subdural hematomas and bilateral retinal hemorrhages, to the three-month-old victim," said Saratoga County District Attorney Karen Heggen. "The Saratoga County Sheriff's Office investigation proved that the defendant was the one who caused the baby's injuries."
Krall was convicted of second-degree assault and endangering the welfare of a child. He faces up to seven years in prison when he is sentenced on December 19.
