Woman condemned by the 2016 murder of her 2 -year -old son

Akron, Ohio-a mother accused of killing her 2-year-old son in 2016, was declared guilty on Monday at the Summit County Common Court, prosecutors say.

Summit Elliot Kolkovich County prosecutor says that Amanda Jo Bunner, 35, from Akron, will be sentenced on March 27 for the murder of Jaxon Bunner. She faces a life imprisonment.

“Jaxon Bunner’s death was a preventable tragedy and my sympathies are with his family,” says Kolkovich in a statement. “There is no tolerance to child abuse in Akron and my heart breaks every time a case like this comes to our office.”

The prosecutors say that Jaxon suffered a serious head trauma while he was alone with Bunner in his room in April 2016. Bunner waited about 15 minutes before calling 911 and his son died after suffering a massive subdural hematoma.

A doctor and the forensic doctor of Akron’s Children’s Hospital determined that Jaxon died of child abuse due to his brain injuries, a malnourished body and excessive amounts of bruises in his body, says Kolkovich.

Bunner is detained in the Summit County prison with a bail of $ 1 million, according to the records.
