Steinberg can be charged with second degree murder in Lisa Steinberg case
New York judge rules Steinberg may be convicted of second degree murder even without proving he delivered the fatal blow. Prosecutors allege he punched 6 year old Lisa Steinberg and delayed help for more than 12 hours, a recklessness linked to her death. He and Hedda Nussbaum were the adults present in Greenwich Village in November 1987. Nussbaum’s charges were dropped after prosecutors said she was too battered to help Lisa. The judge will instruct jurors that depravity and recklessness apply to both action and inaction, allowing a murder conviction if Steinberg knew Lisa was seriously injured and ignored his parental duty to seek aid.
