WAYNE – An autopsy for a village infant whose father has been charged in his death reportedly showed
brain trauma.
James D. Henderson, 20, Wayne, remained incarcerated in the Wood County jail this morning on $1 million
bond in the case. He is charged with involuntary manslaughter in the Saturday death of his son, Brandon
Gage Henderson. He was arraigned via video in Bowling Green Municipal Court on Monday.
Wood County Sheriff Mark Wasylyshyn stated this morning that it was his understanding brain trauma was
revealed in the autopsy. However, it is not yet known if the trauma was the cause of the boy’s death.
The final determination will be made by the Wood County Coroner’s Office.
An obituary for the boy indicated he died at his Wayne residence. Brandon was born Jan. 27.
An investigation into the death was initiated Saturday and involved the Sheriff’s Office, Wood County
Prosecutor’s Office, and the Wood County Coroner’s Office.
