Bangor man charged with manslaughter in connection with baby’s death

BANGOR, Maine — Bangor police detectives have arrested a 25-year-old local man in connection with the death Wednesday of a 5-month-old child in Bangor.

Samuel Moore is charged with manslaughter in connection with the death of Korbyn Antworth, Bangor police Sgt. Cathy Rumsey said Thursday afternoon in a news release. Moore is currently being held at Penobscot County Jail. Moore was employed as a caregiver for the child, she said.

Rumsey said that the infant died at Eastern Maine Medical Center a day after being taken there by ambulance from a residence on Griffin Road in Bangor. The state medical examiner’s office conducted an autopsy Thursday morning but the cause of death is pending.

According to records the Bangor Daily News obtained Thursday evening from the State Bureau of Investigation, Moore’s criminal history in Maine dates to 2001, when he was a juvenile.

As an adult, he was ordered in 2006 to serve five days in jail and pay $57.32 in restitution for aggravated criminal mischief, his criminal history shows. In 2007, he was found guilty of felony burglary and felony theft, for which he received a 10-month jail sentence and one year of probation.

Moore’s most serious conviction to date came in 2008, when he was found guilty of arson, a Class A felony for which he served a nine-month sentence and was ordered to pay $6,779.46 restitution, his rap sheet shows. He also was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession, violating bail conditions and criminal trespass, according to the criminal history.

His most recent brush with the law before this week was his arrest on a warrant in November of last year, according to Penobscot County Jail officials. His address at that time was listed as Veazie.

The case remains under investigation by the Bangor Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division. Additional charges may be filed after the case is presented to the Penobscot County grand jury.

I think this is the 3rd Bangor story, these fucking idiots are reading too much Stephen King.

I can't believe someone would let this stoopid looking bastid babysit.
 
I sure as hell wouldn't leave my precious child(if I had one that is!) with anything that looks like this guy! Can we say lazy degenerate?
I thought the same thing when I first saw him. He doesn't even look capable of taking care of himself, let alone a baby.
 
Update. He only "dropped" the baby, apparently.

BANGOR, Maine — The man charged in connection with the death of a 5-month-old boy told police he had dropped the child, a local prosecutor said Friday.

Samuel Moore, 25, of Bangor is charged with manslaughter. He made his first court appearance Friday afternoon at the Penobscot Judicial Center.

He was not asked to enter a plea because he has not yet been indicted.

Penobscot County Assistant District Attorney Susan Pope told Superior Court Justice William Anderson that the infant suffered injuries consistent with shaken baby syndrome, including brain hemorrhaging and optical nerve damage.

The child, Korbyn Garfield Antworth of Bangor, died Wednesday at Eastern Maine Medical Center, a day after he was taken to the hospital. Moore was employed as a caregiver for the child, police said.

The boy is survived by his parents, William and Brittany Antworth, and his brother, Lucas Stevens, all of Bangor, according to his obituary. Korbyn was born Sept. 18, 2013.

No family or friends of the victim or Moore attended Friday’s proceeding.

Bangor police said Thursday after Moore was arrested that their investigation was continuing and additional charges could be presented to the grand jury.

Anderson set Moore’s bail at $100,000 cash, the amount Assistant Attorney General Lisa Marchese, who is prosecuting the case, recommended. It is unlikely Moore will be able to post such a high bail, defense attorney Marvin Glazier of Bangor told Anderson.

According to records the Bangor Daily News obtained Thursday evening from the State Bureau of Investigation, Moore’s criminal history in Maine dates to 2001, when he was a juvenile.

As an adult, he was ordered in 2006 to serve five days in jail and pay $57.32 in restitution for aggravated criminal mischief. In 2007, he was found guilty of felony burglary and felony theft, for which he received a 10-month jail sentence and one year of probation.

Moore’s most serious conviction to date came in February 2008, when he was found guilty of arson, a Class A felony. He was sentenced to five years in prison with all but nine months suspended followed by four years of probation and ordered to pay $6,779 in restitution. He also was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession, violating bail conditions and criminal trespass, according to the criminal history.

His probation on the arson charge was revoked in May 2009, and he was sentenced to two years in prison with probation to continue, according to court documents.

The arson charge stemmed from a fire at an Orono apartment house on Oct. 14, 2007. The fire began in a storage area in the basement where several mattresses were stored, according to court documents. Moore admitted to police that he set fire to one mattress in an attempt to hurt himself by inhaling the smoke.

As of Feb. 14, 2014, Moore owed $6,369 in restitution and $690 in probation supervision fees, according to a violation review form filed by his probation officer.

“Mr. Moore reports he starts a new job on Monday, [Feb. 17, 2014] and also plans to use his income to catch up on his payments,” the document states.

It could not be determined Friday if the new job referred to in the review form was caring for Korbyn Antworth.

Why wouldn't people do their do diligence before having someone watch their child?
This guy is a fucking idiot stupid piece of shit, but honestly I can't say anything nice about the people that left their child with them either.
Even all the research in the world won't show if someone is a good person, but for fucks sake it is a start.
 
A local man who was arrested earlier this month in connection with the death of the infant he was caring for was indicted on a murder charge Wednesday by a Penobscot County grand jury.

Samuel T. Moore, 25, of Bangor was indicted on one count of depraved indifference murder and one count of manslaughter for allegedly inflicting injuries on March 3 that caused the death of 5-month-old Korbyn Garfield Antworth of Bangor two days later.

In addition to those charges Moore was indicted on one count of aggravated assault for allegedly choking Antworth’s 3½-year-old brother in the same March 3 incident.

Moore told police after his arrest that he was “tossing [the baby] around and at that point [the elder boy] struck him in the groin, he dropped [the baby] approximately 6 feet and he was not caught and did strike the floor,” Bangor Detective Brent Beaulieu wrote in the affidavit unsealed after Moore was indicted. “Moore said that he then choked [the elder boy] out of anger.”

[...]

The 3½-year-old’s alleged assault was uncovered as Bangor police investigated the infant’s death, according to the affidavit. Moore told the boy’s mother that he had “ended up choking himself with a makeshift cape that he had tied around his neck himself.” The boy’s face was covered with petechiae, small red or purple spots on the body caused by a minor hemorrhage, according to the affidavit.

As an adult, he was ordered in 2006 to serve five days in jail and pay $57.32 in restitution for aggravated criminal mischief. In 2007, he was found guilty of felony burglary and felony theft, for which he received a 10-month jail sentence and one year of probation.

Moore’s most serious conviction to date came in February 2008, when he was found guilty of arson, a Class A felony. He was sentenced to five years in prison with all but nine months suspended followed by four years of probation and ordered to pay $6,779 in restitution. He also was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession, violating bail conditions and criminal trespass, according to the criminal history.

It would have been so much easier to do a background check on this worthless criminal douchebag than to bury your infant.
 
maybe the parents did know his history. Maybe they just thought he wouldn't hurt their kids and he could have been a cheap sitter for parents with low income.
 
The Bangor man charged in the death of an infant he was babysitting last year will spend nearly two decades behind bars.

Today, 27-year-old Samuel Moore was sentenced to 17 years in prison.

He was indicted March 26th of last year and initially scheduled to be tried this August.

Today he pleaded guilty to charges of both manslaughter and aggravated assault.

The manslaughter charge stems from a March 2014 incident. According to court documents Moore injured 5-month-old Korbyn Antworth causing his death two days later.

The assault charge stems from choking Korbyn's three-and-a-half year old brother the same day.

As part of the plea agreement, Moore will serve 17 years of a 25 year sentence and serve six years probation.
