(La Porte, IN) - The sentencing hearing for Judah Morgan’s mother has been postponed.

Mary Yoder had been scheduled for sentencing next Wednesday, November 1, but last week that date was pushed back to January 5 in La Porte Circuit Court.

Scheduling conflicts were given as a reason for the change. However, court documents also mention that Yoder’s mental health records from her teenage years are being reviewed as a possible mitigating factor in her sentencing.

In August, Yoder pleaded guilty to one count of neglect resulting in the death of a dependent and one count of domestic battery to a child. Her husband, Alan Morgan, is already serving a 70-year sentence for his part in the murder.
