(Northampton, MA) — A six-year-old criminal case involving the poisoning and medical child abuse of a 7-year-old child ended with a Northampton woman being sentenced to probation Tuesday. Julie Gordon, formerly Julie Conley, 39, of Northampton, pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of reckless endangerment of a child and was sentenced to probation until September 2023. Christopher Conley, Gordon’s former husband and codefendant, was charged with attempted murder after he admitted injecting drain cleaner into the victim’s abdomen in an attempt to kill her. He was sentenced to 16-18 years in prison last February.
