In a tragic turn of events, Jake Haro, a resident of Southern California, has been sentenced to more than 30 years in prison for the murder of his 7-month-old son, Emmanuel. The alarming case grabbed the public's attention as Haro and his wife reported the child abducted, igniting a large-scale search for the missing infant.
