North Idaho man pleads guilty to killing infant son
LEWISTON, Idaho – A North Idaho man has pleaded guilty to killing his 5-month-old son.
The Lewiston Tribune reporteds that 21-year-old Cody Gossage pleaded guilty Tuesday in 2nd District Court to second-degree murder.
Gossage told Judge Jay P. Gaskill that he became frustrated and picked up Jordan B. Bigman-Gossage and shook him in October 2014 at his Lewiston home.
A pediatrician at a previous hearing testified that the infant’s injuries included bleeding in both eyes, skull tissue hemorrhaging, brain swelling and respiratory failure.
Gossage is being held in the Nez Perce County Jail.
A sentencing date hasn’t been set.
