Thirty-six-year-old Adam Wedig was sentenced to pay $736 in fines, charges and costs, according to court documents. He’s also facing another misdemeanor charge. According to reports, Wedig has also agreed to a no-contact order with the baby’s family, with whom has has no known relation.

Court documents show the child’s parents were living at the Ronald McDonald House at the time while the child received treatment for heart problems. In December, the child’s parents got a call about a man handling their child. They rushed to the hospital, where the father tried to follow Wedig. The man told police he didn’t intend to hurt the child. Authorities say he slipped past a nurse as she was walking through a secure door. He then entered the NICU and bottle fed the baby. Wedig also changed the baby’s diaper.
