The Arkansas Court of Appeals has turned down the post conviction relief sought by a Mountain Home woman convicted in a child abuse case
Thirty-four-year-old Alyssia Kirby-Snow was found guilty by a Baxter County Circuit Court jury in early February 2018 of permitting child abuse and endangering the welfare of a minor. The jury acquitted her of first-degree battery.
She was sentenced to 26 years in prison for her alleged involvement in actions that left her then 3-week-old son seriously injured.
Kirby-Snow was represented in her appeal by Little Rock attorney Charles Hancock.
Hancock asked the court of appeals to reverse and dismiss the verdicts against his client or, alternatively, to send the case back to Baxter County Circuit Court for a new trial.
