(Champaign, IL) — A man is heading to prison for abandoning his infant daughter in a Champaign County field. Thomas Boitnott was sentenced yesterday to 20-years behind bars. The 24-year-old was found guilty of attempted murder and child abduction in January, but also mentally ill. Authorities say he left his daughter Karma in a field last June following an argument with the child’s mother.
