An Ottumwa woman convicted of killing her daughter wants the court to clarify its ruling against her. Kelsie Thomas was charged with first degree murder in the death of 5-year-old Cloe Chandler in July 2018. Back in October, a judge found Thomas guilty of involuntary manslaughter, a lesser felony. In her ruling, Judge Lucy Gamon found that Thomas did not act with the malice required for a murder conviction. Last week, Thomas’ attorney filed a motion arguing that her actions are more consistent with aggravated manslaughter, rather than a felony. A hearing will be held January 4 in Ottumwa.
