OREGON, Ohio — An Oregon, Ohio woman pleaded no contest to child endangerment and was sentenced Wednesday after a 2023 incident that resulted in the death of a toddler.
According to court records, Ashleigh Inocentes withdrew her previous plea of not guilty and entered a plea of no contest. A judge sentenced Inocentes to three years of community control in the charge stemming from her 2-year-old son Marcus Hall's death. According to a court statement from Inocentes' attorney, Hall was found dead after drowning in an uncovered, unfenced pool owned by a neighbor.
Inocentes was indicted in October 2023 on a charge of child endangerment, charges that alleged she had been negligent in preventing her son from leaving the home and drowning.
