A Goshen man accused in the death of a 20-month-old child is scheduled to stand trial. 

Miguel Garcia’s trial will proceed even if he does not hire a new attorney.

Prosecutors say the child suffered head injuries while in Garcia’s care in December 2024. Medical experts reportedly concluded the injuries were unlikely caused by a fall days earlier.

The Goshen News says an autopsy determined the child died from those injuries. Garcia’s trial is scheduled for November 16.
