Dowaliby custody battle ends in visit ruling
In Chicago a Midlothian couple charged with their 7-year-old daughter's death lost a custody bid for their 4-year-old son but won visitation in jail. Associate Judge Smierciak ordered a Dec 15 custody hearing and allowed supervised visits with David Dowaliby at the jail. Faith Salsburg DCFS opposed full custody, supported jail visits, and noted the boy stays at Hepzibah shelter in Oak Park. She said bruises may be accidents and there is no conclusive evidence of abuse.
