Man jailed for 6 months after girlfriend’s baby dies on his watch

A man whose girlfriend’s baby died while under his care is sentenced to six months in prison.

The 11-month-girl from the southern city of Ashkelon was hospitalized with a serious head injury in October. She later died of her injuries.

The court in Ashkelon accepts Ziad Abid’s plea bargain, under which he admits to reckless homicide. An earlier count of murder was removed from the charges.
