Famous Actor's Daughter Facing Murder Charges

 

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. —

The daughter of Oscar Award-winner Billy Bob Thornton is in the Orange County Jail Thursday morning, facing first degree murder charges.

On Wednesday, a grand jury indicted Amanda Brumfield on murder charges in the death of her friend's one-year old daughter.

An Orange county judge refused to grant Brumfield bond Thursday.

In May, Brumfield was arrested in Ocoee for child neglect when the little girl died while in her care. Brumfield had initially told police that Olivia Garcia died from a fall.

Neighbors were shocked to hear about the new charges.

"I don't like to see that brought against anyone unless the whole story is bought out but it's a scary situation," commented a neighbor.

Brumfield also faces aggravated child abuse charges and aggravated manslaughter charges. She is being held without bond.
