1st-degree reckless homicide
Sufficiency of the evidence

Sandra Scott appeals from a judgment of conviction of first-degree reckless homicide of a two-and-one-half year-old child. She argues that the evidence was insufficient to establish that she had a subjective awareness that her conduct would created a substantial risk of death or great bodily harm or that her conduct showed an utter disregard for life. We conclude that evidence that Scott punched the child in the stomach twice and failed to seek medical attention for the child when the child exhibited problems established all elements of the offense. We affirm the judgment of conviction. This opinion will not be published.
