Amanda Thornton

Amanda Thornton Brumfield, unlike other celebrity children, was thrust into the spotlight for a shocking cause. Billy Bob Thornton, the Golden Globe-winning actor, has an estranged daughter. Amanda was found guilty of aggravated manslaughter after being accused of murdering Olivia Madison Garcia, her best friend’s one-year-old daughter.

Amanda claimed Olivia’s death was due to a freak accident, but she was charged with first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, and manslaughter. Her family members started a campaign to have her conviction overturned. Will she, however, be released soon?

Despite the fact that Amanda Thornton father is a multimillionaire, Amanda did not have access to a rich lifestyle during her upbringing. It’s unclear whether Billy paid spousal support following his divorce.

Billy Bob Thornton has a net worth of $45 million as of 2020. He is now starring alongside Tania Raymonde and Diana Hopper in Amazon’s online series Goliath as Billy McBride.

The Death of Olivia Madison Garcia

It was October 2008, and the Garcia family’s bliss was about to be shattered by a tragic tragedy. Amanda’s best friend, Heather Murphy, became Olivia’s godmother.

Amanda told officers on October 3, 2008, that a youngster she was babysitting had fallen and injured her head. Stranger still, she requested assistance more than two hours after the occurrence. Olivia reportedly tumbled out of her playpen and struck her head on the floor, according to Amanda.

What happened that day is still a mystery, but a baby died. According to the prosecutors, Olivia’s death was not an accident, but rather the result of Amanda’s carelessness. Olivia also had a roughly 4-inch deep fracture in her skull, as well as hemorrhage and swelling in her brain, according to postmortem records.
