A Kansas man has bee acquitted on all charges related to the death of his four year old granddaughter from carbon monoxide poisoning. A Shawnee County Jury acquitted 58 year old Timothy Wayne Funk Sr., on Friday, of three charges, including First Degree Murder. He was charged after his granddaughter, Brandy Funk, of Beatrice, Nebraska, died in July 2019 at her grandfather’s home in Silver Lake. Court records show Timothy Funk acknowledged he left a generator running in the house’s garage with its door shut, while he was watching the girl and another granddaughter, who survived. He said he didn’t intend to leave the door closed for as long as he did.
