DERIDDER, La. (AP) - Holly A. Brewer, whose 18-month-old son
died after being beaten by her boyfriend last year, has pleaded
guilty to accessory after the fact to second-degree cruelty to a
juvenile.
Brewer entered her plea Monday before state District Judge C.
Kerry Anderson.
The 21-year-old Brewer was arrested
in July after her son, John Thomas Anthony Brewer, died after
suffering severe head trauma and bruising in the beating.
Jeffrey Paul Denby, Brewer's boyfriend, was convicted of
first-degree murder in May. He was sentenced to life in prison
without parole.
Brewer's sentencing is set for Aug. 26.
