Re: Endangering the welfare of a child
There is no easy answer to the question. A prosecutor would review all the evidence before deciding what charges to bring. What you described would constitute a number of misdemeanors that carry up to a year in jail, but there are also other scenarios where he could be charged with felonies and be facing significant amounts of prison time.
