一 | DECATUR, Ga. -- A suburban Atlanta woman has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for the 2021 murder of a 4-month-old who died after she placed him to sleep on his abdomen in the child care center she operated out of her basement.A judge sentenced Amanda Hickey, 48, on Friday after families of children she was accused of abusing gave emotional testimony against her.”I know that there is nothing I can say in words to take away their pain, except take responsibility and express extreme sorrow for what I’ve done,” Hickey told DeKalb County Superior Court Chief Judge LaTisha Dear Jackson, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “This is my legacy now.”Charlie Cronmiller was being cared for in Hickey's Little Lovey child care center when he died on Feb. 3, 2021. Hickey didn't check on him for more than two hours before finding him covered in vomit and not breathing. The infant was pronounced dead at a hospital.Hickey operated the child care center from the basement of her Dunwoody home. She initially told investigators that she put the baby down on his back, in line with state regulations, but that the child rolled over onto his abdomen. Security video, however, showed Hickey actually placed the infant facedown.Video showed her swinging other babies by their feet, slamming them into the ground, pulling their hair, pushing and tripping toddlers, and placing others in unsafe positions for sleep, prosecutors said. The victims ranged in age from 6 to 18 months.Hickey was licensed to care for six children, but prosecutors said 10 were inside her home the day Charlie died.She pleaded guilty Sept. 22 to seven counts of first-degree child cruelty, seven counts of reckless conduct, one count of second-degree child cruelty and three counts of battery. Hickey entered an Alford plea, which allows a person to maintain her innocence while acknowledging that it is in her best interest to plead guilty to charges of second-degree murder and second-degree child cruelty related to Cronmiller's death. “There is no remorse,” the baby's mother, Stephanie Cronmiller, told the court Friday. “The only thing she’s sorry about is that she got caught. I focus on forgiving myself because I chose her. How could I not think this was my fault?”Hickey was taken into custody immediately after the hearing. Jackson ordered that once Hickey is released from prison, she can’t have contact with the victims or any children younger than 13, and can’t gain financially from the case.。 08月26日讯 据《彭博社》报道，NBA球星詹姆斯曾通过自己的公司把“未来的场外收入”变现，提前融资近3亿美元。这笔钱的利率是4.8%，于2049年到期，由两家人寿保险公司（北美人寿与健康保险公司）购买相关债券提供资金，而当时负责管理部分资金的古根海姆合伙公司的掌舵人正是后来成为湖人老板的马克·沃尔特（目前已是前任老板）。2022年8月中旬，恰逢詹姆斯与湖人正式达成一份为期两年价值9700万美元的顶薪续约合同，这两家保险公司又买了詹姆斯约6000万美元的新债券，期限34年，利率提高到 5.75%。相关新闻：彭博社：詹姆斯2018年加盟湖人前将未来收入提前变现 融资3亿美元。
