The Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office says Boehmer brought his three-month-old baby to Sonora Regional Medical Center in December saying she was having difficulty breathing. The little girl, Kalie Boehmer, had many injuries and was taken off life support on December 11th at Oakland Children’s Hospital.
