TORONTO – A woman in Toronto who abandoned her young daughter in a sweltering apartment to go dancing has been sentenced to three years in prison for causing her death.

In the fall, Clara Dasilva pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the September 2002 death of her two-year-old daughter, Adrianna.

The court heard that Dasilva, 25, left the toddler unattended for 33 hours during hot weather.
