Homicide hearings continued for Point Marion couple
A preliminary hearing was continued today for a Point Marion couple charged with homicide in the death of their young daughter. State police Trooper Timothy Kirsch said Robert David Dodson, 55, and Tammy Jo Bohon, 35, both of Point Marion, were each charged before Magisterial District Judge Ronald Haggerty Jr. with criminal homicide and endangering the welfare of a child following the death of their daughter, Madison Violet Dodson.
Police said Robert Dodson had left the 15-month-old girl to sleep on the living room floor amongst animal feces and garbage around 11 p.m. Jan. 5, while the toddler’s mother was smoking crack cocaine in Masontown.
