GRANGEVILLE, Idaho -- The mother of a 3-year-old boy who was beaten to death by the mother's live-in boyfriend in March 2011 is charged with endangering her son.

The Lewiston Tribune reports 22-year-old Angela Ann Johnson is scheduled to appear in Magistrate Court on Tuesday on a charge of felony injury to a child.

Johnson's boyfriend, Todd W. Carver, is serving a life sentence after being convicted in the beating death of 3-year-old Dominick Boyd. He has maintained his innocence and is appealing the conviction.

Prosecutors allege Johnson willfully caused or permitted her child to be placed in a dangerous situation with Carver, who had been released from prison on grand theft charges only weeks before she and her sons moved in with him in Grangeville.

Johnson also is charged with food stamp fraud.
