Father disappointed by plea deal for his 16-year-old son's mother after boy's death

A woman charged in connection with her 16-year-old son's death reached a guilty plea Monday. Aneka Connor, 38, pleaded guilty to manslaughter, reckless endangerment and endangering the welfare of a child for the death of Ca'hry Gibson. The two were involved in an argument Oct. 10 over Gibson's phone. Connor left her house on Breck Street, got into her car and began backing out of the driveway when Gibson ran out of the house and jumped onto the vehicle, according to authorities. Connor accelerated the vehicle at a high rate of speed, causing Gibson him to fall off onto the pavement. Gibson was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital, where he was placed on life support. He died Nov. 7. Connor was arrested Dec. 30. Monday's plea includes a sentence of 1-3 years in prison. Connor's attorney declined to comment. Gibson's father said the sentence is too small, compared to the life that was lost. "My son is dead, his mom is in jail and I've got to accept that and learn how to live with that," Christopher Gibson said outside court after Monday's hearing. Moments earlier, Gibson stood before Judge Stephen Miller to deliver a victim impact statement. He expressed disappointment in the promised sentence but also told Connor he forgives her. "Just ready to get past all of this," Gibson said after court. "Can't get past it without forgiving her. It's not for her anyway — it's for me, so I don't be mad and angry all the time." Gibson said he also forgives Miller, who was "just doing his job" as a judge. "He made his determination based off of what he's seen in the video and what happened that day," Gibson said.
