An Arkansas City woman has pleaded guilty in the death of a toddler who drank rust remover in her home.

Two-year-old Davin Manly became fatally ill while under the care of Jennifer Bowman last October. Authorities said the rust remover was in a plastic beverage bottle.

Bowman pleaded guilty Wednesday to involuntary manslaughter. She had been scheduled for arraignment but entered the plea instead.

Sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 11.
