A Dodge County woman will spent 10-years in prison for neglecting a child resulting in death. 33-year-old Jamie Hildebrandt was sentenced in connection with the death of her three-year-old son in March of 2020. Hildebrandt was at home alone with her three children when her mother showed up against Hildebrandt’s wishes to see the grandchildren. After being told to stay away, the grandmother went into a back bedroom and found the young boy unresponsive. An investigation found that the child had died from internal abdominal injuries resulting in a loss of blood. Hildebrandt told detectives she laid the child on the floor to change his diaper and forgot that he was there, accidentally stepping on the child when she got out of the shower. District Attorney Kurt F. Klomberg recommended that the court impose the maximum sentence for Hildebrandt.
