A | DECATUR, Ga. -- A suburban Atlanta woman has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for the 2021 murder of a 4-month-old who died after she placed him to sleep on his abdomen in the child care center she operated out of her basement.A judge sentenced Amanda Hickey, 48, on Friday after families of children she was accused of abusing gave emotional testimony against her.”I know that there is nothing I can say in words to take away their pain, except take responsibility and express extreme sorrow for what I’ve done,” Hickey told DeKalb County Superior Court Chief Judge LaTisha Dear Jackson, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “This is my legacy now.”Charlie Cronmiller was being cared for in Hickey's Little Lovey child care center when he died on Feb. 3, 2021. Hickey didn't check on him for more than two hours before finding him covered in vomit and not breathing. The infant was pronounced dead at a hospital.Hickey operated the child care center from the basement of her Dunwoody home. She initially told investigators that she put the baby down on his back, in line with state regulations, but that the child rolled over onto his abdomen. Security video, however, showed Hickey actually placed the infant facedown.Video showed her swinging other babies by their feet, slamming them into the ground, pulling their hair, pushing and tripping toddlers, and placing others in unsafe positions for sleep, prosecutors said. The victims ranged in age from 6 to 18 months.Hickey was licensed to care for six children, but prosecutors said 10 were inside her home the day Charlie died.She pleaded guilty Sept. 22 to seven counts of first-degree child cruelty, seven counts of reckless conduct, one count of second-degree child cruelty and three counts of battery. Hickey entered an Alford plea, which allows a person to maintain her innocence while acknowledging that it is in her best interest to plead guilty to charges of second-degree murder and second-degree child cruelty related to Cronmiller's death. “There is no remorse,” the baby's mother, Stephanie Cronmiller, told the court Friday. “The only thing she’s sorry about is that she got caught. I focus on forgiving myself because I chose her. How could I not think this was my fault?”Hickey was taken into custody immediately after the hearing. Jackson ordered that once Hickey is released from prison, she can’t have contact with the victims or any children younger than 13, and can’t gain financially from the case.。 8月15日晚,26092期大乐透开奖,全国开出4注一等奖,其中一注基本一等奖花落大连市普兰店区皮口镇的第02365号实体店。8月16日,大奖实体店内外喜气洋洋。据大奖实体店代销者段女士介绍,这是站里第一次中出体彩大奖,中奖者是站里的一位老顾客,15日晚买了5注号码,一共花了10元钱,能喜提960万元一等奖,“太幸运了,真为他高兴!”段女士经营彩票站20多年,与许多购彩者都处成了朋友。16日一早,她还接到中奖者的电话,“我中奖了,中大奖了,谢谢彩票站!”有意思的是,由于中奖者不怎么会上网,所以当时并不知道奖金具体是多少,还以为是500万元,当得知奖金有960万元时,他惊讶到不敢相信,“真的吗?没想到有这么多!”为此,中奖者特意赶到体彩实体店,亲眼看到机器上显示的系统提示和开奖结果,才确信无疑。截至目前,大连购彩者今年已经中得5注大乐透大奖,前4注分别是在3月16日、4月6日、4月18日和7月8日中出的,总奖金达到4600余万元。
