A man accused of first degree murder, multiple counts of aggravated assault, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and other crimes in connection with the death of a New Kensington child will stand trial on those charges.
The Trib reports that 34-year-old Keith Lily, Jr. is charged with killing two-year-old Mikel Fetterman. Prosecutors said that Lily was left alone to care for the child while the mother was asleep in the other room back in 2020. Police found the child unresponsive and in cardiac arrest with Lily trying to revive her.
The doctor who treated the child said at a hearing last spring that the child was sexually and physically abused. Prosecutors will seek the death penalty.
