WARREN — Jenalynn Davidson, 27, of Millicent Avenue, Liberty, pleaded guilty in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court to felonious assault and child endangering against a 5-year-old boy last fall.
The boy was a family or household member, prosecutors said.
She entered an Alford plea Thursday, meaning she maintained her innocence but pleaded guilty because there was sufficient evidence she would be found guilty if the case went to trial.
According to her indictment, Davidson caused serious physical harm to the boy and tortured or cruelly abused him between Sept. 1 and Oct. 18, 2011, when he was 5.
She will be sentenced in about six weeks after the Trumbull County Adult Probation Department conducts a pre-sentence investigation. She could get up to 11 years in prison.
