BELMONT COUNTY, Ohio (WTRF) — The father of the baby girl who died of fentanyl exposure was arraigned in Belmont County on Friday.
38-year-old Cameron Cothran is charged with involuntary manslaughter, evidence tampering, and possession of a federally-regulated compound.
The public defender entered not-guilty pleas to all counts on Cothran’s behalf.
At the prosecutor’s urging, Cothran’s bond was increased from $50,000 to $100,000 dollars.
His trial is set for June 25.
Cothran took the baby to East Ohio Regional Hospital last Wednesday, dropped her off, and left.
She was life-flighted to a Pittsburgh hospital, where she died on Sunday.
