Asher Goldstein said he confessed to “clear his conscience,” claiming the child suffered from cerebral palsy and that he acted out of “compassion.” His son’s death was originally reported as a drowning at sea. Two years later, in 1976, he murdered his wife, and served 11 years in prison. His detention was extended until Wednesday.
