A 26-year-old Long Island man has
been charged with second-degree murder for allegedly killing his
girlfriend's 17-month-old son, whom he had been watching on and off for
the last several months.
Lord
Pardo, of Uniondale, pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Tuesday. His
attorney, Meir Moza, vehemently denied the allegations.
Police said Pardo's girlfriend had
left her son, Mason Robinson, in Pardo's care when she went to work
Sunday. The boy was taken to a hospital, where authorities found he had
suffered a lacerated liver and lungs and fractured skull and ribs.
Prosecutors said the injuries came from multiple blows.
Moza called Robinson's death a tragic accident. He said the child was jumping on a bed when he fell and was injured.
