On Thursday a Chemung County jury found a 23-year-old man guilty of reckless assault.
Joseph Stowe had caused seriously and reckless physical injury to a 27-day-old infant in December of 2018 by shaking him.

Stowe’s sentence is scheduled for August 30 of this year and carries a possible sentence of up to 7 years in state prison.
