(AP) — An Omaha home day care provider has been given three to five years in prison for shaking a 9-month-old girl.
Douglas County District Court records say 34-year-old Jennifer Story was sentenced on Wednesday. Story had pleaded guilty to negligent child abuse after prosecutors lowered the charge from intentional child abuse.
An incident report says Story contacted authorities on April 19 last year about a sick child. She told them the girl showed signs of vomiting and symptoms similar to a seizure. Investigators say they determined that Story had shaken the child while caring for several children in her west Omaha home.
