A three-year-old girl from upstate New York died after months of neglect so severe that a lice infestation left her anaemic, and both of her parents have now been sent to prison.
Joycelynn Ann Dylewski died in February 2025 after emergency crews found her struggling to breathe inside a Corinth apartment that was later condemned. Her parents, Matthew and Samantha Dylewski, each pleaded guilty to criminally negligent homicide and received the maximum sentence available under New York law.
