Overview
- The judge sentenced Luis Gonzalez Jr. and Kitrina Udrea to five years of probation on Thursday, July 30, 2026, with roughly 45 days of pretrial custody credited and no additional prison time.
- The couple pleaded guilty in May 2026 to second-degree manslaughter for the death of their 2.5-month-old daughter, a charge that carries a statutory maximum of up to 15 years in prison.
- Erie County medical records show doctors warned in April and May 2023 that infant Londyn’s weight was falling and advised more formula and more frequent feeds, and the parents missed a follow-up visit on May 8, 2023.
- The Erie County medical examiner ruled Londyn’s death a homicide by neglect caused by malnutrition and dehydration, and the district attorney said the parents acted in concert and recklessly caused the death.
- The sentence, coupled with the judge’s verbal condemnation of the parents’ actions, is likely to prompt public scrutiny of how courts punish fatal child neglect and could lead to debate over plea deals and sentencing practices.
