Anoka County Criminal Defendant Pled to Unintentional Murder; Sentenced to 139 Months
A male friend of a Columbia Heights mother was sentenced yesterday in the death of her 23-month-old child. The criminal defendant, Ahmed F. Mohamed, pled guilty earlier this year to second-degree unintentional murder (manslaughter) in Anoka County, Minnesota. Mohamed was ordered to serve 139 months in prison, with the possibility of release after two-thirds of his sentence.
In late 2006, police discovered the child dead in the home of her mother after the mother left her in the care of Mohamed. Evidence suggested that the child died of massive internal injuries that included a torn liver and broken ribs.
