29~year~old Amanda Brumfield, the oldest daughter of Billy Bob Thornton, is being charged with child neglect after a toddler she cared for last year died.

Brumfield told detectives that a girl she was babysitting hit her head in a fall inside a home on Oct. 3rd. Brumfield called for help more than two hours later when she couldn’t revive the girl.

An autopsy determined the girl had a fractured skull and brain injury. The medical examiner ruled the death a homicide and said the explanation Brumfield gave was inconsistent with the child’s injuries.

Thornton’s spokeswhore said the actor has not had contact with Brumfield for quite some time.

He wouldn’t confirm that Brumfield was the woman arrested, but that when Thornton was “informed about this situation” he commented that, “Anytime a baby’s life is lost is an unimaginable tragedy and my heart goes out to the baby’s family and loved ones.”
