The accused pleaded guilty to criminal negligence causing death of her 20-month-old daughter.
The child ingested carfentanil from a baggie the accused kept in her sweater pocket while the accused was using opioids and fell asleep.
The court imposed a sentence of 4 years custody, less pre-sentence custody of 441 days, resulting in 2 years and 289 days remaining to be served.
The sentencing emphasized denunciation and general deterrence while considering the accused's addiction, remorse, and rehabilitation potential.
