AUBURN – A local man pleaded guilty Friday to manslaughter in the death of an 8-month-old girl he was baby-sitting last year.
Todd Gamache’s sentencing is scheduled for April 30.
The victim, Emmy-Leigh Cole, was rushed to a hospital emergency room with severe injuries on March 22 from her home in Auburn. She died two days later after life support was removed. Gamache, 24, was charged with murder in April and was held in Androscoggin County Jail since then.
The state agreed in a plea deal to a 20-year maximum sentence for Gamache, the Lewiston Sun Journal said. If the judge imposes a longer sentence, Gamache can withdraw his plea and go to trial.
