SUNBURY The mother of a man accused of fatally injuring the three-year-old daughter of his then girlfriend has been found guilty of giving false statements to investigators.
A Northumberland County jury deliberated for less than an hour Thursday before finding Christy Lynn Willis, 51, of Sunbury, guilty of obstruction in child abuse cases, hindering apprehension and making false reports to law enforcement.
She wanted to testify against Willis, her attorney Michael O’Donnell said.
She wants both Burgess and Willis convicted, O’Donnell said, adding that it was her decision to testify in both instances.
