A Columbus woman was sentenced Tuesday to 12 years in prison for her role in her young son's murder.  

Dainesha Stevens pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges for failing to stop the abuse of 14-month-old Cameron Beckford in 2014.  Her boyfriend, Kurt Flood, is serving 19 years to life for beating and killing the boy and dumping the body in Big Walnut Creek. 

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
