Jamestown, CA…Yesterday, around noon, 23-year-old Brett Wozynski of Jamestown was arrested in connection with the death of 3-year-old Sean Arnold. Brett was arrested on a $1,000,000.00 warrant for murder and child abuse. The extensive investigation by the Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Office Investigations Division began in September 2018, when the victim suffered major injuries from a reported accident.
