CALGARY — A trial for a Calgary man charged in the death of his grandson has heard a recording of what appears to be the accused praying for forgiveness.

Allan Perdomo Lopez is charged with manslaughter in the July 2015 death of five-year-old Emilio Perdomo.

The trial has previously heard the boy died of blunt force brain trauma about a week after being rushed to hospital unconscious.

The Crown is playing 11 recordings made in the family’s home and vehicle.
