Watson Gets 12-25 for Death of Child

0 comments | Thursday, April 07, 2005

A Potter County man will serve 12-25 years in prison for the death of a toddler. 24-year-old Clinton Watson was sentenced in Potter County Court Wednesday for the January 2004 death of 2 year old Serena Powell. Powell died after sustaining massive trauma to her abdomen and head.

Watson pleaded no contest, admitting he caused the death, but saying he did not mean to kill her when he inflicted the injuries.

Watson injured the girl when she told him she had a dirty diaper.

The girl’s mother, Arlene Haines faces child endangerment charges, because she continued to allow her children to live with Watson, even though she knew he was a danger.
