A second person has been charged in connection with the death of four-year-old Judah Morgan in LaPorte County. The LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office announced Wednesday that his biological mother, Mary E. Yoder, 26, has been charged with two counts of neglect of a dependent, along with misdemeanor counts of cruelty to an animal and failure to report.
Judah’s father, Alan D. Morgan, 28, was charged with murder and five counts of neglect of a dependent on Tuesday. Yoder remained in the LaPorte County Jail, as of Wednesday afternoon.
The Sheriff’s Office notes that arrests and criminal charges are mere accusations, and every person is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
