Sullivan County Assistant District Attorney Amber Massengill told the court on Wednesday that, had the case gone to trial, the state's evidence would have been that the boy suffered bruises on his back and one arm while in Mashburn's care in November 2009, followed by a skull fracture on the back of his head in December 2009.

The later injury involved what Massengill previously described to the Times-News as a "bilateral skull fracture," or one that involved both sides of his skull.

Massengill told the judge that Mashburn had offered three different explanations for the injury.

Then she said the fall happened while she and her husband were wrestling with a stick. And when told that the boy's injury was not consistent with him falling on his face, Mashburn changed her story a third time to reflect that he had fallen on the back of his head, Massengill said.

Also on Wednesday, Mashburn asked to be considered for alternative sentencing. A hearing on that request is scheduled for Dec. 17.
