BENTON COUNTY, Wash. – Jose Rosas Olivo was sentenced to 25 years in prison last week in Benton County Superior Court for the death of his six-week-old son in 2021.
The sentencing follows a guilty plea to Homicide by Abuse, Benton County Prosecutor Eric Eisinger said in a release.
The Richland man confessed to engaging in ongoing physical abuse of his son, which led to the child’s death.
An autopsy showed that the baby died of multiple injuries including a skull fracture, bleeding under the scalp, multiple rib fractures and a lacerated liver.
