A 28-year-old mother in Indiana will spend more than a decade behind bars for physically abusing her 13-month-old son, nearly killing the child by wrapping him in blankets and duct tape. Floyd County Superior Court Judge Carrie K. Stiller earlier this month ordered Jessica Meade to serve a sentence of 16 years in a state correctional facility after Meade pleaded guilty to one count of neglect of a dependent resulting in serious bodily injury, authorities announced.

In exchange for pleading guilty, prosecutors agreed to drop an additional felony charge of aggravated assault posing a substantial risk of death originally filed against Meade, records show. Stiller credited Meade with 370 days of time already served and prohibited her from having any contact with the victim.

“It is a terrible tragedy when a parent, who is the one person who is supposed to protect their child from the hardships of the world, is responsible for the abuse,” Deputy Prosecutor Kristin Perdue said in a statement.
