Tamara Lovett was sentenced to three years in prison Friday for criminal negligence in death of her seven-year-old son, Ryan, by treating him with natural remedies instead of consulting a doctor.
[...]

Ryan Lovett, 7, died March 2, 2013, after his mom continued to treat the gravely ill boy with “natural” remedies, instead of getting him professional medical care, which would have saved his life.

In convicting her, Eidsvik found Lovett gambled with the boy’s life by sticking to her belief system, ultimately losing that gamble.

At her September sentencing hearing, Lovett said she no longer adheres to the belief system that led her to treat the dying boy with oil of oregano and dandelion tea.

In her ruling, Eidsvik said Ryan’s critical, but treatable illness would have been evident to Lovett more than a week before he died from overwhelming sepsis related to a streptococcus infection.
