“The children faced a real risk to their health and safety.”
Originally charged with criminal negligence causing bodily harm and assaulting an officer, the woman finally pleaded guilty to one count of failing to provide the necessities of life.
The judge added his concerns about “significant gaps” in her attempts toward rehabilitation.
