Father Files Wrongful Death Lawsuit Against a Minnesota County After Son Found Dead
The father of a boy who was found dead in the trunk of the vehicle his mother was driving in May has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Dakota County and three county employees.
In a federal lawsuit, Tory Hart claims the county, two social workers, and a court-appointed guardian ignored the warning signs that led to the death of his 6-year-old son, Eli.
Eli’s mother, 28-year-old Julissa Angelica Genrich Thaler, is charged with murdering her son. Her next court hearing is set for Sept. 14.
