Mother gets year in jail
HILO (AP) - A mother whose infant daughter starved to death has been sentenced to one year in jail and also placed on 10 years' probation.
Saraswati Mulder, who also goes by the name Saraswati Gopi Lacasse, had been charged with murder, but pleaded guilty in July to the lesser charge of manslaughter.
Mulder's daughter, Manjai Mulder, was 10 weeks old when she died Oct. 27, 1999. At the time she weighed 6 pounds, more than 1.5 pounds less than her birth weight.
Mulder, 24, has said her daughter had been ill, and she had relied on alternative treatments.
"This will never happen again," Mulder said during sentencing Friday.
Third Circuit Judge Greg Nakamura ruled Mulder, the mother of two other children, can begin serving her sentence after she gives birth to another child in about two weeks.
He also said Mulder can serve part of her sentence under house arrest.
