NORWICH – Norwich City Court heard a jury trial over two days earlier this week concluding with a Norwich woman pleading to child endangerment charges.

Shannon Woods, 31, of Norwich appeared in Norwich City Court before Judge James E. Downey, accompanied with her attorney Rosemarie Richards.

First Assistant District Attorney, Michael D. Ferrarese, was present in court representing the people.

Woods was charged with endangering the welfare of a child, following an arrest that took place in her home on Mechanic Street.

Jury selection for Wood's case on Monday Oct. 26, with the full jury of six jurors and two alternates selected laster that afternoon.

Opening statements were made by both the prosecution and defense Monday afternoon, as well as the first witness of the prosecution, Norwich Police Officer Scott Germond, being called to the stand.

On Tuesday Oct. 27 at approximately 9:30 a.m., Germond was called back up to the stand to finish his testimony.

Germond testified that before entering the house he could hear yelling and noise from outside, and upon entering the house, he found a broken window and broken glass on the floor where two children were running around barefoot.

Per questioning from Ferrarese Germond stated, “My attention was drawn to the counter in the kitchen, where we found a box with prescription of Suboxone out and the box was opened.”
