A woman accused of murdering her adopted Chinese daughter has pleaded not guilty to charges of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, aggravated child neglect and reckless homicide.
Jennifer Alvey, 34, waived her right to appear at her arraignment Monday, court officials said.
The Spring Hill woman is accused in the death of her 20-month-old daughter, Emma Alvey. Authorities said on Oct. 19 she shook the baby, striking her head on a coffee table, then neglected to immediately get help for the baby.
