The accused, a daycare provider, was charged with manslaughter following the death of a 14-month-old child in her care.
The child suffered a severe skull fracture and subdural hematoma.
The court found that the accused momentarily lost her patience and intentionally assaulted the child, causing the fatal injuries.
Alternatively, the court found that the accused failed to provide the necessaries of life by delaying calling 911 for over an hour after observing the child was unresponsive and limp, which significantly contributed to the child's death.
The accused was found guilty of manslaughter.
