Specifically, on March 22.2012 at 2:10a.m. S.A.O., DOB 1-28-2012, was brought into the emergency room by her parents, Paige Demarre and William Robert Olsen, DOB 5-18-91, hereinafter referred to as the defendant.

Doctor Dewey at the Gateway Clinic examined the child and determined that the child had a fractured left humorous and a fractured right femur. The child was transported to the University of Minnesota Hospital where physicians performed emergency surgery on the child's leg stating that there could be permanent disfigurement. Doctors in examining the child determined that the child had multiple fractures to various parts of her body that were in various stages of healing. The Injuries appeared to be approximately one month old, some injuries appeared to be a week to two weeks old and the recent injuries as well. Doctors con'firmed up to 21 fractures and 5 likely fractures. Specifically fractures were discovered in: 7 ribs, left clavicle, left humerus, left femur, left tibia, left metatarsal, right tibia and fibu1a as well as the skull.

8gt. Nelson spoke to the defendant who agreed to provide a voluntary statement. The defendant stated that the injury occurred sometime between midnight and 2 a.m. but stated that he had no idea how she had been injured. The defendant told Sg1. Nelson that he has never seen the child's mother get violent with the infant nor has he ever been violent with the infant. The defendant confirmed that the child is unable to stand or crawl on her own, nor is she able to roll from her stomach to her back or from her back to her stomach. The defendant then told Sgt. Nelson that it has been rough getting sleep and that he has not had much sleep. The defendant stated that he did not hurt the child and that he did not know how she had been injured. The defendant began crying at one point and told 8g1. Nelson that he squeezed his daughter's arm. Sgt. Nelson asked for details and the defendant said that the child had been been crying and he did not know what to do. The defendant stated that was approximately 2

a.m. and the child was lying in the crib at which point he grabbed her arm. The defendant then described grabbing the child's left upper arm with his right hand. 8gt. Nelson asked the defendant' if he picked up the child and the defendant stated that he "just squeezed too much." The defendant stated that the child's mother was sleeping when this happened. 8gt. Nelson asked about the injuries to the child's right leg and the defendant denied doing more than squeezing her arm. The defendant stated that he did not even notice her leg was hurt until they were at the Gateway Clinic.

The defendant was then silent for several minutes and stated that he wanted to say something but that something was holding him back. The defendant then told 8gt. Nelson that he took both hands and squeezed the child's leg. 8gt. Nelson asked if this was before or after he grabbed the child's arm and the defendant stated it was before grabbing her arm, 8gt. Nelson asked if the arm and leg incident happened at the same time or if there was time in between and the defendant stated that it was at the same time. The defendant stated that he picked the child up by her leg. 8gt. Nelson asked if he twisted or squeezed and the defendant stated that he just picked up the child and she started screaming louder. The defendant stated that he then squeezed her arm. The defendant stated that he then grabbed her by the thigh area and admitted to picking the child up all the way off of the mattress but not out of the crib. The defendant stated that he was so tired and irritated that he did not know if he did any damage. The defendant stated that he only had a couple hours of sleep in the last day and that he was trying to get the child to be quiet so he could get some sleep.

8gt. Nelson asked the defendant if anything else like this had happened and the defendant admitted that he squeezes the child sometimes but not as hard as he had done that morning. The defendant described the squeezing as not hard enough to break bones or anything and proceeded to show 8g1. Nelson how he would hold her with his left arm and squeeze her left hand with his right. The defendant admitted that this had happened on two prior occasions and stated that it was within the last week. The defendant admitted that things had been getting worse in the last week with work and no sleep. The defendant stated that the child has never been dropped or knocked off the bed.
