A video showing his now-dead 5-year-old son smiling into the camera was apparently the tipping point for a grieving father.

David Engwiller sat in a courtroom in San Antonio, Texas, on Wednesday for the sentencing of 29-year-old Daniel Garcia, who was convicted of the 2021 death of Engwiller’s son Domenic Aguilar Acevedo. During the hearing, prosecutors played a video of Domenic saying “I love you so much, mommy, I love you so much, mommy.”
