Ah - I was wondering why she didn't have a next hearing date....

Mom Who Sedated And Hid Child In Closet For Years Sentenced

Detectives said Veronica Aguilar spoke glowingly of her other children but kept her son hidden in a closet until he died.

patch.com

Dec. 8, 2023

LOS ANGELES, CA — A woman whom authorities said kept her 11-year-old son sedated and hidden in a closet for several years leading up to his death was sentenced Friday to 25 years to life in state prison immediately after pleading no contest to assault on a child causing death.
Veronica Aguilar, now 46, could have faced a potential life prison term without the possibility of parole if her case had gone to trial, and if a jury convicted her of first-degree murder and found true the special circumstance allegation of murder involving the infliction of torture involving her son, Yonatan Daniel Aguilar.

The murder charge and special circumstance allegation were dismissed as a result of her plea.

Pretty long article - but tells a history of this case.

Could not figure out where this thread was so had to search the forum - so tried finding in the court site. I do see she has a hearing-but does not need to attend since she was found guilty.
