No death penalty possible in case of Middletown 6-year-old’s death, disposal. Here’s why. Lauren Pack
A Middletown woman and her boyfriend accused in the death and disposal of her son were arraigned Monday in Butler County Common Pleas Court, and despite outrage expressed by the community, the death penalty will not be possible in the prosecution of the alleged crimes.
Court-appointed attorneys entered not guilty pleas on behalf of Brittany Gosney and James Hamilton in Judge Noah Powers’ courtroom. Bond was set at $2 million for Gosney and $750,000 for Hamilton.
Because the duo did not waive their rights to a speedy trial, a tentative trial date was set for May 24. They are due back on court March 22 for a pretrial hearing.
