Prosecutors will seek the death penalty against the mother of a toddler killed in 2013 in Hartsville.
In a press release Wednesday, Fourth Circuit Solicitor Will Rogers said his office will seek death against April Dixon for the December 2, 2013 murder of Madison Dolford.
Authorities say Timothy Sanders shot and killed the 21 month old. The solicitor’s office announced it would seek the death penalty against Sanders in December, 2014.

Prosecutors said Sanders’ case was eligible for the death penalty because he killed the child for money or something else of value, and on behalf of another person.
Both Dixon and Sanders are charged with murder.
No trial date is set for either person.
