CROWN POINT â A Lake Criminal Court judge sentenced a man Wednesday to 55 years in prison for killing his former girlfriend's 5-year-old son. Michael J. Tunstall, 27, of Knox, maintained his innocence during his sentencing hearing, but Judge Salvador Vasquez told him, "We honor jury verdicts." The family of 5-year-old Daniel Holdcroft Jr. told the judge they trusted Tunstall and he betrayed them. Tunstall's family members testified he was raised in the church and would never hurt a child. Vasquez said he accepted that Tunstall's family sees him as a good guy, but a jury convicted him of killing a child. "I don't know what you are," Vasquez told Tunstall.Â
