Trial begins for Calgary man charged with second-degree murder in infant’s death

By The Canadian Press on November 7, 2022.

CALGARY – A Calgary father has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder in the death of his infant son.

The trial for 32-year-old Anthony Karl Kurucz started this morning in the Court of King’s Bench in Calgary.

It is scheduled to run for almost three weeks.

Police have said emergency crews were called to a Calgary home in April 2018 to help a three-month old in medical distress.

The infant, Jayden Cyluck-Kurucz, was unconscious and he died in hospital two days later.

Court heard a recording of the 911 call from Kurucz this morning in which he said his baby was “freaking out” and he was trying to calm him down when he went limp and blood started coming out of his nose.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 7, 2022.
