\nBrumfield was allegedly babysitting a 1-year-old in October when the child died after falling from a playpen.
\nAuthorities in Ocoee, Florida, told Access that Brumfield, 29, was released on bond on Saturday.
\nAccording to the Orlando Sentinel, Brumfield claims the child died after sustaining a head injury from falling from its playpen. She reportedly did not call for help until two-and-a-half hours later.
\nHowever, the Ocoee medical examiners office reportedly ruled the death a homicide.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s not believable that a 1-year-old can balance themselves on a railing,\u201d a spokesman for the Ocoee Police Department told the newspaper.
\n\u201cWe do believe her head hit a hard object [but] you would either have to fall harder or hit something with more force\u201d than a 28-inch playpen fall.
\nBrumfield is the oldest of Thornton\u2019s four children, and his only child with his first wife, Melissa Gatlin.
\n\u201cMr. Thornton is estranged from Amanda and has had no contact with her for quite some time,\u201d a rep for the star told Access Hollywood on Sunday.
\n\u201cHowever, when informed about this situation, he commented that, \u2018Any time a baby\u2019s life is lost is an unimaginable tragedy and my heart goes out to the baby\u2019s family and loved ones.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
