Billy Bob Thornton's Daughter Guilty of Manslaughter
June 2, 2011— -- The estranged daughter of actor Billy Bob Thornton has been found guilty in the death of a 1-year-old child in Orlando.
Amanda Brumfield, 32, was convicted of aggravated manslaughter Friday.
She will likely be sentenced in July, according to The Associated Press.
Brumfield was acquitted of first-degree murder and aggravated child-abuse charges.
Authorities said Brumfield killed her best friend's daughter, Olivia Madison Garcia, while she babysat her overnight in October 2008.
Brumfield claimed the toddler hit her head while trying to climb out of a playpen but that she ate bananas and acted normally afterward.
She told police that she laid the child next to her on the couch and fell asleep, and when she awoke later she discovered the girl's body was limp.
In court, her lawyer suggested that the girl's fall may have aggravated a previous injury and caused her death.
