A former Butte woman accused of smothering her baby to death is fighting her extradition back to Butte.
Audria Nickersonwas arrested in Maine last month on a charge of negligent homicide after she fell asleep on her 5-month-old daughter while parked near the police station in Butte on Sept. 25.
She is challenging her extradition back to Butte, and law enforcement will seek a governor’s warrant to secure her return next month. She remains jailed in Maine.
