Local Man Sentenced In Toddler's Death

Franklin County Sheriff's Office

A Prairie Township man will serve two years in prison in the death of his 16-month-old daughter. 31-year-old Michael Wilder was convicted in January of killing Maiya Wilder and neglecting her two sisters. The child died after being placed too closely to a space heater in June of last year. The girls' mother, 25-year-old Greta Sahatciu, was sentenced in February to 60 days in jail.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
