Audrina Claire Hepburn
June 6 2008 - October 17 2009
Age: 16 months old
In October 2009, Ashley Nicole Hepburn, who was 21 years old at the time, was arrested and charged with murder by child abuse. When Police arrived at the hospital, they spoke to Ashley's boyfriend Brandon who claimed that he had checked on Audrina a few hours before and she was fine, but when he had gone to check on Audrina at about 1:30 am.
He found her laying in the corner of her crib, lying face down and she was unresponsive. According to Brandon, he picked Audrina up and she still did not respond so he called 911 and Audrina was taken to the hospital. After speaking with Ashley, Police were told that Audrina had been put to bed at about 10:30 pm, the night before and though she seemed a little fussy, she didn't seem to be in any trouble.
Reports say that Audrina died from being shaken which is commonly referred to as "Shaken Baby Syndrome". Audrina had brain injuries and bruises on her body. At the time of her death, there supposedly four adults in the home and apparently, nobody heard or saw anything
A jury found Ashley guilty and she was sentence to 45 years in prison, but would only have to serve 85% of that time before being considered for parole
