SIDS: Idaho: Adriana Torres-Jaquez sentenced

RUPERT, Idaho — A 23-year-old woman whose 5-month-old daughter was left unattended and died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome while she was at work has been sentenced to two years probation.
The Times-News (http://bit.ly/vdeeWG) reports that Adriana Torres-Jaquez also received a 180-day suspended jail sentence last week in 5th District Court.
Authorities say Jasmine Salinas died July 5 after she was left without a caregiver.
Minidoka County Prosecutor Lance Stevenson says prosecutors aren't arguing the death could have been prevented, but that they felt there were criminal actions in the case due to a lack of attention.
