A mother who killed her toddler daughter by giving her methadone to help her sleep has been sentenced to 30 years behind bars. Courtney Nicole Howell admitted to giving 17-month-old Jaslynn Mansfield the lethal overdose, and said she will regret the decision for the rest of her life. Prosecutors say that after her daughter stopped breathing, she called 911 but failed to tell doctors that she had given her the drugs. If they had known, the baby might have lived, prosecutors said.
