Lanaya Cardwell, mother of 2-year-old Nevaeh Allen, rejected a 10-year plea deal and will stand trial for second-degree murder in her daughter’s 2021 death.
Lanaya Cardwell, mother of 2-year-old Nevaeh Allen, has rejected a plea deal offering a 10-year sentence for cruelty to juveniles, choosing instead to go to trial on a second-degree murder charge.
The case stems from allegations that Cardwell assaulted Nevaeh after the child damaged a contact lens, leading to the toddler’s death in September 2021.
Nevaeh’s body was found in a Mississippi forest months later.
Cardwell’s boyfriend, Phillip Gardner, was previously convicted of second-degree murder and obstruction of justice and sentenced to life in prison.
Her trial is set for February 2, 2026, with a pre-trial conference scheduled for November 24.
