Texas Mother Sentenced To 50 Years In Prison For 12-Year-Old Daughter’s Death
On July 24, 36-year-old Khierra Sada Walker was sentenced to 50 years in prison by 400th District Court Judge Tameika Carter.
Walker pleaded guilty to injury to a child by omission causing serious bodily injury and elected to have her punishment assessed by the court, a news release from Second Assistant District Attorney Wesley Wittig said.
By waiving her right to a jury trial and entering a guilty plea, she was eligible to ask the court for deferred adjudication, which is a form of probation.
Law enforcement and emergency personnel said they were contacted regarding a 12-year-old girl that was non-responsive.
Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office Detective Jeffrey Brownson observed the child and claimed she had “numerous” severe burns on her body that required medical attention.
During the investigation, authorities learned that Walker was the girl’s mother. She claimed that she had been attempting to treat the child’s burns for several days with various home remedies and over-the-counter items, but the girl died from her injuries.
