The trial of a Medina father whose one-year-old daughter's body was found dead in her crib begins today.

Eric Warfel, 35, of Medina, has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. He's accused of putting trash in a room to cover up the smell of the decomposing body of Ember Warfel.

The baby's body was found by a cable installer in late July.

Warfel has been charged with child endangering, gross abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence, and possession of cocaine.
