Mother ordered to trial in baby’s death
An Oneida County mother whose baby died of a
morphine overdose will stand trial after attempts to reach a plea deal fell
through.
Twenty one year old Amanda Bodoh is charged with
child neglect resulting in death after her 10 month old daughter was found with
large amounts of morphine in her system.
Prosecutors say Bodoh neglected her child by
allowing people she knew were abusing drugs, to care for the girl.
Peyton Marie Lonkoski was found dead May 4, a day
after her family moved from Iron River, Michigan to an apartment in the Town of
Pelican.
Bodoh’s trail is scheduled to begin January 19,
2010.
