On Monday, the Florida woman was sentenced to life in prison for killing her 18-month-old son, Ezra. He was convicted in June of six counts, including first-degree murder, child abuse, involuntary manslaughter, child abuse and two counts of child neglect. Her husband, Ryan Patrick O’Leary, is locked in as time ticks toward his own trial. Media reports said Sheila O’Leary sat stone-faced as her life went down the toilet in the Lee County courtroom. He told the judge he would not make a statement. Ezra O’Leary died of complications caused by malnutrition in September 2019.

Officers said the Cape Coral mother of four fed her family only raw fruits and vegetables. Ezra was also breastfed. But when he died, the tragic child weighed just 17kg, the size of a child less than half his age. Two of their other children, ages 3 and 5, were also malnourished, detectives said. The children’s skin was yellow, with one suffering from such poor dental hygiene that their teeth were black. Doctors discovered that the boy had not eaten for a week. And when Ezra was struggling to breathe the night he died, they rolled over and went to sleep. Ezra’s surviving siblings endured “extreme neglect,” prosecutors said. A fourth child from Sheila’s previous marriage was doing better because of visits with her biological dad and he fed her well. “He chose to ignore his screams. He didn’t need a scale to see his bones,” Assistant District Attorney Sarah Miller told the court. “He didn’t need a scale to hear his cry.” [email protected] @HunterTOSun
