A Wisconsin father facing three felony counts of child neglect has made his initial appearance in Dodge County Court.
35-year-old Frank Pleester is accused of the death of his three-year-old son in March 2020.
Pleester was placed on a $50,000 signature bond Monday.
An autopsy of the victim by the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office found multiple injuries including contusions and abrasions to all parts of the boy’s body, plus internal injuries to his pancreas and stomach.
Pleester is scheduled to return to court next month for a preliminary hearing.
