Sad news for the famous father of Amanda Brumfield, as the estranged daughter of actor Billy Bob Thornton has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for the death of a friend's 1-year-old daughter.
CNN reported that Amanda Brumfield was sentenced Thursday, four months after she was convicted of aggravated manslaughter of a child.
She was acquitted of first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse charges.
Brumfield claimed that Olivia Madison Garcia hit her head after falling while trying to climb out of a playpen.
Prosecutors claimed that the height of that fall would never cause a three-and-a-half inch fracture on the girl's skull.
