Nicole Sumpter plead guilty for criminal mistreatment and tampering with evidence involving the death of an infant

Eugene, OR – According to the court documents, she was caring for 9-month-old William Cannon when he went into cardiac arrest.
She tried to perform CPR on the toddler. She stepped away to let a grandmother pickup up her grandchild she was also taking care of.
Sumpter acknowledged deleting photos of that child she had on her phone.
Sumpter said the baby was anemic and not given proper care from doctors that lead to his death. And there were no marks of abuse on Canon that could have lead to his heart attack.
Sumpter was sentenced to three years’ probation.
