A Wake County man who was arrested in connection with the death of an infant nearly two years ago made his first court appearance.
The investigation started on Oct. 28, 2024, when deputies received a report of an injured infant taken to a hospital. On Nov. 1, the baby died from her injuries.
Earlier this month, investigators obtained an arrest warrant for the baby's father, 25-year-old Christopher Gonzales. He was charged with murder.
Gonzales was taken into custody on Tuesday and processed into the Wake County Detention Center.
Wednesday afternoon, he made his first court appearance. Gonzales' wife, Selena, was in the courtroom in support of her husband. She declined to comment after the hearing.
