Mom Breaks Down at Sentencing in Toddler’s Suffocation Death

Tien Hawkins, the mother of a murdered toddler, spoke out at her sentencing hearing on Wednesday. Hawkins' 2-year-old daughter died from suffocation inside their home in July 2025. Authorities also stated that the toddler and her other two siblings, ages 1 and 5, reportedly showed signs of abuse and had “significant injuries.” Hawkins told the judge that she loved her kids and that if she had known what was happening to them, she wouldn’t have let it go as far as it did. Hawkins’ boyfriend, Brian Moser, was sentenced to 17 to 22.5 years behind bars for the death of the toddler.
