Woman sentenced to 51 years for trading 11-year-old daughter in exchange for heroin

An Ohio woman was sentenced to 51 years to life for allowing her 11-year-old daughter to have sex with her drug dealer to feed her heroin addiction, court officials said.

April Corcoran, 30, of Pleasant Plain was convicted of 27 felonies that include horrific charges related to trafficking in persons, complicity to rape, corrupting another with drugs and endangering the welfare of a child.

Corcoran pleaded guilty June 9 for the disgusting crimes she committed along with her dope peddler and codefendant Shandell Willingham in March 2015.

Willingham, 42, is accused of 26 felony counts that include rape, gross sexual imposition, trafficking in persons and pandering sexually oriented materials involving a minor. The defendant allegedly videotaped the atrocious sex acts in his apartment.

Prosecutor Katherine Pridemore said the crimes the doped-up degenerates committed were so heinous she had trouble reading some of the facts in court.

“She didn’t have the cash or the means to buy her heroin anymore from her drug dealer, so she offered up her child,” Pridemore said in a press conference.

“We all know drugs make you do things but at the same time, to offer up your child and you are the mother, it’s unfathomable.”

Corcoran’s attorney James Bogan said prosecutor’s offered his client a plea-deal which they rejected.
