It has become known what punishment the wayward mother from Volgograd received.
The woman went on a visit for a few days, leaving her nine-month-old son alone at home.
As the press service of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Volgograd Region reported on its Telegram channel, the party girl was sentenced to 18 years in prison.
The court found the defendant guilty of murder and child abuse.
The 24-year-old woman will have to spend the required term in a general regime penal colony.
Circumstances of the incident
According to law enforcement officials, the high-profile incident occurred last summer.
The 24-year-old mother left home, locking her apartment with a key. At that time, her 9-month-old baby was left in it.
Four days after the mother left home, the child's grandmother came to the apartment, but it was too late. The woman discovered a lifeless body.
The cause of the child's death was determined to be exhaustion and dehydration.
