Corona man accused of killing 8-year-old son indicted for murder
RIVERSIDE (CNS) - A Corona man accused of killing his 8-year-old son after numerous acts of abuse that involved restraining the child and plunging him into hot and cold water was under indictment Friday, Dec. 11 for murder and other charges that could lead prosecutors to seek the death penalty.
The indictment against 34-year-old Bryce Daniel McIntosh was unsealed following criminal grand jury proceedings convened last month at the request of the Riverside County District Attorney's Office.
Along with first-degree murder, the jury added a special-circumstance allegation of torture and a count of child cruelty.
McIntosh, who is being held without bail at the Byrd Detention Center in Murrieta, is scheduled to appear for a trial-setting conference on Feb. 18 at the Riverside Hall of Justice
