Amanda Brumfield, estranged daughter of actor Billy Bob Thornton, bas been indicted on charges of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse and aggravated manslaughter in the death of a 1-year-old girl she was babysitting in Ocoee, Florida.
She is expected to make her first appearance in court this morning. Amanda Brumfield, 29, is being held without bail at the Orange County Jail.
She was one of three people indicted on first-degree murder charges.
Ocoee police say Amanda Brumfield, the godmother of Olivia Garcia, claimed initially that the baby fell out of a playpen, but that this is suspicious.
An autopsy completed in March concluded that the 28-inch fall could not have caused the skull fracture or bleeding of the brain that Olivia suffered.
The injury led to a coma and the death of the child the following day, October 4.
Prosecutors have not released what they think happened or given a motive.
