A Fairview Township woman has avoided additional jail time and possible conviction on a felony child-endangerment charge for wrapping a jump rope around the neck of her 4-year-old son, which police said caused ligature marks and bruising.
Brittany Rose Simpson is deeply remorseful about what happened and accepted responsibility for her actions from the start, according to York County public defender Matt Sembach, who represented her.
“She has learned from the incident and she intends on doing everything in her power to not only be a better parent but to be a better person,” he said.
