YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – Adrianne Hudson has entered a guilty plea to Involuntary Manslaughter, a first-degree felony, and Endangering Children, a third-degree felony. Hudson pleaded as charged; neither charge was reduced in exchange for the plea.
The Mahoning County Prosecutor’s Office is recommending a sentence of eight to twelve years in prison.
Hudson was indicted on both charges following the death of a two-year-old child in her care. The child drowned after falling into a pool on Ridgelawn Avenue.
Sentencing will be scheduled at a later date.
Prosecutor Lynn Maro commends the Youngstown Police Department and Assistant Prosecutor Daniel Yozwiak for their diligent work throughout the investigation.
