A Grantsburg couple has been charged with felony child abuse in the death of their 10-week-old infant.

Thirty-five-year-old Jesse Marek and 21-year-old Samantha Stoeklen are each facing identical felony child abuse charges of intentionally causing great bodily harm as party to a crime, in the death of their 10-week-old child on Feb. 1, 2016.

According to the criminal complaint, the Burnett County Sheriff's Department received a call about a suspicious death of a child on Feb. 2, 2016.

Upon investigation, deputies found that the father of the child, 35-year-old Jesse Marek, had fed the child at about 4 a.m. the previous day, and around 8:30 a.m., he found the child limp, unresponsive and barely breathing. After attempting CPR, Marek brought the child to the Burnett Medical Center, and from there the child was transferred to St. Paul Children's Hospital and pronounced dead.

The Ramsey County Medical Examiner's autopsy report revealed that the child suffered multiple non-accidental injuries. The medical examiner found rib fractures that were all at different stages of healing - meaning they had been inflicted at different times, showing a pattern of abuse.

The report stated that the injuries were consistent with forceful squeezing, and that they resulted from at least three - and up to five - traumatic events, starting when the child was between 1 and 3 weeks old.

In an interview with law enforcement, Marek said that at some point in the past, around Jan. 15, 2016, the child had rolled off the couch. It was explained to Marek that this incident would not have caused the rib fractures found in the autopsy. Marek also admitted he has a "temper."

Oh, before I go, that mugshot needed a warning.
 
I wonder what kind of drugs the mom was on to let that man impregnate her.

I agree he is one disturbing looking human being.

All criminal charges have been dismissed against Jesse Marek one of two people charged criminally in the death of an infant in Burnett County.

DrydenWire.com reported in April 2017, that Jesse Marek and Samantha Stoeklen were facing criminal charges of child abuse causing harm regarding the death of their infant child in February 2016.
Marek’s charges were dismissed without prejudice according to Stipulation and Order to Dismiss documents obtained by DrydenWire.com that were filed in Burnett County Circuit Court. A dismissal without prejudice means that the State could choose to re-file criminal charges, however, it is unknown at this time if any charges will be re-filed.

Online circuit court records show that the charges against Marek were Dismissed on Defendant’s Motion.
 
The egg filed to have her charges dismissed first and it was granted,

The ejaculator also had his charges dismissed and could possibly be recharged in the future.

They probably believe he was the one to cause the death of the child but they cannot prove it at this time.
