Mother Sentenced for Daughter's Death | Honolulu News
Description
A Laie mother, a former college social work instructor, has been sentenced to ten years for fatally abusing her 11-year-old adopted daughter—forcing the sick child to run outside despite suffering from COVID, flu, and pneumonia. In court, she wept, apologizing and calling her children “the best.” The case has torn the community apart, with families divided over whether the sentence is too harsh or too lenient. The judge, who had never sentenced a mother for child abuse, credited time served and rejected probation. The mother’s attorney plans to appeal.
