Ringgold told police the baby was not breaking and drove her to the hospital in April 2018.

But police say she used her phone to Google, "how to do CPR on a baby" more than an hour before they got to the hospital.

As part of the plea deal, a judge dropped one count of endangering the welfare of a child and agreed to sentence her to 20-40 years in prison.
