A father in Michigan who found his 10-month-old daughter dead inside her crib coolly and callously told a police dispatcher 90 minutes after finding her that the girl was “dead as a doorknob,” recordings show.

A prosecutor in Kent County played a recording of the call on Wednesday made by Seth Welch, 27, on Aug. 2 after finding his daughter, Mary, unresponsive inside their home in Solon Township, MLive.com reports.

“You know, just another day,” Welch told a dispatcher when asked how he was doing after the girl’s death. “It is what it is.”

Welch and his wife, Tatiana Fusari, were charged in August with felony murder and first-degree child abuse after an autopsy revealed the girl died from malnutrition and dehydration due to neglect by adult caregivers.

The girl weighed only 8 pounds when she was found. Police said in an affidavit that the couple admitted that their daughter had been underweight but appeared healthy. Welch and Fusari said they didn’t seek medical help because they didn’t trust doctors because they were previously reported to child welfare officials after they disagreed with a doctor’s recommendation for their 4-year-old daughter.

The couple also has a 2-year-old child, MLive.com reports.

Judge Sara Smolenski ordered both Welch and Fusari held for trial on both charges during Wednesday’s court appearance. She also admonished Welch for his “callousness” to his daughter’s death.

“It is as horrific as it gets,” Smolenski said of the child’s malnourishment. “The skeletal-like posture of the child, in my opinion, speaks volumes for how long the baby was not cared for properly. The 10-month-old baby weighed eight pounds at death.”

An attorney for Welch argued that his daughter suffered from a metabolic disorder that blocked her from absorbing nutrients, but a forensic pathologist who performed the autopsy testified that he found no metabolic diseases or parasites in the girl.

Welch, meanwhile, was visibly upset in court when hearing his 911 call from months earlier played aloud Wednesday. Welch told the dispatcher he called his attorney 90 minutes earlier to ask what to do next. He also called his parents.

“I guess I don’t know if this is the right place to report this to,” Welch told a dispatcher. “One of my children is dead.”
