Woman Sentenced for Death of Her Baby Boy - Tuesday, January 20, 2009 at 5:05PM EST
HAZLETON, LUZERNE COUNTY- A Hazleton woman will serve 2-to-4 years in prison in connection with the death of her baby boy.
A judge sentenced Tiffany Simmons Tuesday afternoon. A jury convicted Simmons last month of involuntary manslaughter and endangering the welfare of children.
It stems from the January, 2007 death of 3-month-old Xavier Simmons.
The woman's boyfriend, Alan Leitzel of West Hazleton, is accused of killing the infant. | |
