A Horseheads man has been sentenced in connection with the death of a three-year-old child last year.
Christopher Woods pleaded guilty to second degree murder in Chemung County Court in July.
Woods admitted to slamming the child to the floor twice in September of 2025. He did not take the child to the emergency room until hours later.
The autopsy report showed that the child died from blunt force trauma to the back of the head.
Woods was sentenced to 18 years to life in state prison.
