Husband of Bronx Day Care Owner Charged in Toddler's Death Seen in Mugshot

Felix Herrera, the husband of the Bronx day care owner charged in the fentanyl-poisoning death of a toddler, was seen for the first time since his arrest in a Mexican mugshot14. Herrera was nabbed by Mexican authorities while trying to get away on a bus near Sinaloa1. He had been on the run since the death of 1-year-old Nicholas Feliz Dominici at the Divino Niño Daycare in Kingsbridge on September 1515. Herrera is seen wearing a solemn expression and a black Puma T-shirt in the picture1.

The case has caused outrage and concern, with some questioning how Herrera was able to evade authorities for so long1. The incident has also raised questions about the safety and regulation of day care centers in the Bronx1.
