SPRINGFIELD TOWNSHIP -- A couple previously convicted of child endangerment involving their foster daughter has been sentenced again after the girl's death.
David and Melody Smith were sentenced Wednesday on a child endangerment conviction after Malake Dancer, 11, died of natural causes in February.
Investigators said at the time that the Smith home was "unsanitary and dangerous." The couple had been convicted of child endangerment charges involving the girl in 2004.
The couple was sentenced to 18 months suspended sentence, five years probation, a $1,000 fine and must complete a four to six month course at a community-based corrections facility.
The judge also said the Smiths cannot have any more foster children or pets, "not even a goldfish."
