OSHKOSH - A baby sitter who
admitted punching a 2-year-old girl for refusing to help
fold blankets has been convicted of killing her.
A Winnebago County jury took
less than an hour Wednesday to find 24-year-old Sandra Scott
of Oshkosh guilty of first-degree reckless homicide. Scott
could be sentenced Nov. 20 to up to 66 years in prison.
Scott took the stand earlier
Wednesday and admitted hitting Alizay Koepf twice in the
stomach after the child did not fold a blanket. Alizay fell
back and hit her head on a liquor bottle. She later died at
a hospital.
Scott testified for about 40
minutes about what happened on Jan. 3, 2007. She said she
did not intend to hurt Alizay when she hit her.
