Felony charges against an Oil City couple in an alleged child endangerment case were withdrawn Wednesday in Venango County Central Court.
Matthew Stoltenburg, 40, and Cassandra Whitmore-Stoltenburg, 29, had both been facing a felony count of endangering the welfare of children.
A criminal complaint filed through district judge Andrew Fish’s office said Oil City police received multiple reports stating the couple had failed to provide proper hygiene and eye care for their 8-year-old daughter between January 2017 and February 2018.
