BAKERSFIELD, CA -- A judge has delayed sentencing for a man convicted in the death of a 10-week-old baby. In March, Kylor Smith-Sims pleaded no contest to voluntary manslaughter and first-degree burglary for the death of 10-week-old Travion Smith-Sims in March 2012.
The father iniitally said he dropped his infant son. But the coroner found the infant suffered 12 broken ribs, three skull fractures, and bleeding in the brain.
In exchange, first-degree murder and assault on a child causing great bodily injury charges were dropped.
Smith-Sims faces 12 years and four months in prison. Sentencing is now set for July 8.
