An Escambia County woman that tossed her dead toddler into a trash can and left her other two children home alone while she reported them missing has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.
Christian Rochelle Woods, 23, received the 15-year prison sentence and 30 years probation Monday afternoon on an aggravated manslaughter charged.
Woods left her two children, ages 18-months and two years, home alone for two days in a home with no power or water. The children were left with only a few cups of Jello to eat.
Authorities said that the little girl who was found dead in a trashcan, Myleahya Woods (pictured left), weighed just 11 pounds. Prosecutors say she starved to death.
The other two children found in the home, Myleahya ’s twin sister, Mykayhala (pictured right) and Jaterius Woods, 2, were also severely malnourished. When deputies found Mykayhala under a bed in the filthy Escambia County home, she was in a coma. Escambia County Sheriff David Morgan said deputies first thought Mykayhala was dead until her eyes fluttered.
