Parents Face Charges

A Wisconsin couple who prayed instead of taking their sick daughter to a doctor face charges of second-degree reckless homicide. Dale and Leilani Neumann of Weston could get 25 years in prison for letting their 11-year-old die of diabetes. Leilani Neumann told Associated Press they believed in the Bible but had nothing against doctors. They do not belong to an organized church. The girl’s grandmother says the child was ill for days and wasn’t able to walk or talk.
