OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A woman has been convicted for causing the death of her 3-month-old daughter.
26-year-old Keshia Waupoose pleaded no contest Tuesday to second-degree reckless homicide and child abuse, according to court officials.
Sentencing is scheduled for May 31.
Appleton police said Waupoose fell asleep on top of her baby after a night of drinking.

The autopsy listed the child’s death as asphyxia.
