Charges have been filed against three staff members of a youth services facility in Kalamazoo where a teen died after being restrained, the county prosecutor said Wednesday.
The charges come almost eight weeks after the death May 1 of Cornelius Frederick, 16, at Lakeside Academy after he was restrained, authorities said, on April 29 by staff allegedly for throwing a sandwich.
Mosley and Solis face the same charges: homicide and involuntary manslaughter, a 15-year felony; second-degree child abuse, a 10-year felony; and child abuse, second-degree child care organization violation, a 10-year felony.
McLogan faces two offenses: involuntary manslaughter for alleged gross negligence for failure to perform or timely seek medical care for Cornelius Frederick, a 15-year felony; and child abuse, second-degree child care organization, a 10-year felony.
The state said last week that it had terminated its contracts with Lakeside Academy for youth in foster care or the juvenile justice system.
