Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by Robert Gene Prouse appeals his jury trial convictions of child
abuse (K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 21-3609) and first-degree felony murder
(K.S.A. 21-3401). On February 15, 1987, defendant and his wife, Susan Prouse,
brought their seven-week-old daughter, Felicity, to the emergency
room of the Caldwell Hospital. The baby was not breathing. CPR
was administered. Twenty minutes later Felicity was pronounced
dead. The examining physician, Dr. Ray Stowers, observed multiple
contusions and abrasions on the child's face and a large hematoma
behind the right ear. He asked defendant how these injuries
occurred. Defendant said the child had fallen from her crib two
or three weeks earlier and that, a few days previously, the
family cat had scratched the child's eyelid. Defendant further
stated the child had received no injuries the day of her death,
and she was not breathing when he found her. Dr. Stowers believed
defendant's explanation was inconsistent with the observed
injuries and notified the Sumner County Medical Examiner. An
autopsy was performed the following day by Dr. David DeJong.
