(KNOX) – A North Dakota woman has been sentenced to 19 years in prison in connection with the death of a baby in her unlicensed home child care center.
Patricia Wick pleaded guilty in January to murder, child abuse and operating an unlicensed day care center.
Prosecutors alleged she caused head and neck injuries to a 5-month-old boy…who died in September 2022.
They say that another boy broke his arm while in her care after falling off a swing… and that she didn’t report the injury right away to his parents.
