EVANSVILLE, Ind.—An Indiana woman who pleaded guilty to neglect after a rat attacked her 6-month-old son and left him with disfiguring injuries has been sentenced to probation, weeks after her husband received a lengthy prison term.

A Vanderburgh County judge sentenced Angel Schonabaum, 29, to four years in prison on Thursday but gave her credit for a year she has already served and suspended the remaining three years to probation, the Evansville Courier & Press reported.
