A father charged with throwing the baby onto a glass table during an argument with his wife has pleaded no contest to felony child abuse, the San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office said.
The boy, 17 days old, suffered two skull fractures after Bin Pan, 42, of San Mateo, allegedly threw the boy into a table 3-5 feet away. Pan allegedly told San Mateo police he had had enough of caring for the baby.
The incident occurred Aug. 7, 2021, on the 2600 block of Corte De Flores, and the baby was sent to a foster home. The baby died Sept. 13 of unrelated issues, according to the DA’s Office. Prosecutors said the accidental death was at the foster home. Pan will receive up to four years in state prison.

I agree with both Terence and Dirk. Experience counts in the job Canepa is running for, not schmoozing ability. Irizarry has experience.
