PERRY -- The owner of Sister-n-Sister Family Home Day Care, where police say a 3-year-old boy left in a car died from stroke, has been indicted on charges of felony murder.
A Houston County grand jury Tuesday also indicted Shelia Henderson on charges of involuntary manslaughter, second-degree cruelty to children and reckless conduct in the July 31, 2011, death of Andrew Leighlan Calloway of Warner Robins.
Calloway died from heat stroke after he was left for an hour in a parked car at the home day care on Georgetown Boulevard in Warner Robins when the outside temperature was 95 degrees, according to police and the indictment.
Greg Bell, a Warner Robins attorney representing Henderson, declined comment.
According to police, the toddler was in the vehicle with Henderson, her sister, Johnnie Mae Grayer, 66, of Macon, and two other children, who had gone out to lunch.
After returning home, Henderson later realized Calloway was not inside her house and went outside to find him unconscious in the locked car. The boy was taken to Houston Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
The Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning, the state licensing agency for child care facilities, launched an investigation into the incident. The day care, which is no longer in operation, was not licensed with the state, according to the department.
Henderson, 50, is free on a $20,000 bond pending trial.

Michael Sordillo, 46, was stabbed once in the lip and once in the chest with a folding knife in the 7:30 p.m. incident, authorities said. He was treated and released that night from Houston Medical Center.
The couple were living separately and had agreed to meet in a public place to talk when Cathy Sordillo apparently got upset and stabbed her husband, said Houston County sheriffs Capt. Robert Clark. She fled and was arrested later that night at her home.
