Michigan mother who killed 6-month-old baby by leaving him in the attic for 3 days while she partied gets at least 20 years in jail

The judge presiding over the case described Lovily Johnson's actions as 'extremely disturbing' and hoped she never has the opportunity to care for another child again
UPDATED JAN 27, 2019

A mother-of-two has been sentenced to at least 20 years in prison after she pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of her six-month-old son. Michigan resident Lovily Johnson was accused of leaving her baby, Noah, in a sweltering attic strapped in his car seat for several days without air conditioning, food or water, while she was away partying with friends, according to a Daily Mail report.

Sentencing her to between 20 and 80 years in prison on Thursday, Kent County Circuit Court Judge Mark Trusock described 23-year-old Johnson's actions as "outrageously disturbing."

"And what did you chose to do?" Judge Trusock asked Johnson. "You went out with your friends, you partied, you sought out a place that had air conditioning and you used drugs."
