Trial Begins For Greenwood Man Accused Of Killing Daughter

Last updated on Tuesday, January 26, 2016

(GREENFIELD) -The trial for a Greenfield man accused of murdering his 1-year-old daughter last May began Monday.

Investigators believe she died after being hit in the head. She also had injuries to her liver.

Matthew Wagoner is the first to go on trial for her death.

Wagoner's wife, Jessica, will go on trial for similar charges in February.

Investigators believe the couple tried to cover up the injury because they feared the Department of Child Services would be called.

DCS was already involved with the family, because of the couple's other two children.
