Father Charged in Daughters Death











A 25-year-old Havelock man has been charged in connection with the death of his daughter in earlier this year.

On January 8, emergency officials were called to a home in Havelock where 23-month-old Dakota Linfield had ingested methadone at some point during the previous 24 hours.


She was taken to the Moncton Hospital and later airlifted to the IWK in Halifax where she passed away five days later.

Anthony Linfield has been charged with manslaughter, criminal negligence causing death and failing to provide the necessaries of life. His next court appearance is Tuesday of next week.
