Woman guilty in death of nephew has sentencing pushed back

BROKEN BOW, Neb. (AP) - Sentencing for a Broken Bow woman found guilty in the death of her 20-month-old nephew has again been pushed back.

The Kearney Hub reports (https://bit.ly/2hFlR0c ) that a judge moved 26-year-old Brittney Pryce’s sentencing to Jan. 26.

Authorities say 20-month-old Noah Pryce suffered a fatal head injury in November 2013 while in the care of Pryce and Pryce’s mother, Diane Hill. Both women were initially charged with second-degree murder. The case against Hill was dismissed. Pryce later was convicted of child abuse resulting in death.
