Zachary McCaa, 26, has been charged with second-degree murder, first-degree manslaughter and second-degree manslaughter, in connection with the June death of his two-month-old son.
Police on June 9 were called to help a two-month-old boy who was not breathing, according to police. The boy was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital, and died from his injuries on June 16. McCaa was accused of throwing the baby, causing him to strike his head, and shaking the child "violently" on several occasions, deputies said. He was originally charged with reckless assault of a child, a felony.
 
Zachary McCaa showed little emotion Tuesday as a judge sentenced him to 22 years to life in prison for killing his infant son.
The 2 1/2-month-old boy died in June 2022, seven days after McCaa, then 26, threw him and caused blunt force injuries to the head.
"To never show remorse, never show emotion — I mean, this was his son, this was his parents' grandchild," said Livingston County District Attorney Greg McCaffrey. "People react differently in times of stress and emotion, but he was alone with his son for three hours and he killed him. It's that simple."
Investigators said McCaa also violently shook the baby on more than one occasion.

"It really seemed at the time, that cases like this (happen) all the time," McCaffrey said. "Babies get ill, babies get injured, and we try to find out what happened. I never would have thought in that moment (about) what we would learn, what he would detail to law enforcement, and what the medical evidence would show in the coming days and weeks about the brutal torture this baby had to endure."
