An Oakland woman has been arrested in the death of an infant more than a year ago.
Lisa Barney, 54, was charged with manslaughter, according to Maine State Police Lt. Aaron Turcotte.
The 4-month-old died on Sept. 8, 2023, following an incident in Oakland on Aug. 31, 2023, Turcotte said Friday.
The Maine medical examiner’s office ruled the child’s death a homicide.
A Kennebec County grand jury indicted Barney on a manslaughter charge on Thursday. Barney was arrested about 9:15 a.m. Friday.
Barney was taken to the Kennebec County Jail in Augusta. Her bail was set at $100,000.
