(CNN) -- Misty Croslin, the last person known to see a 5-year-old Florida girl before she was reported missing in February 2009, has been sentenced to 25 years in prison and more than $1 million in fines, court officials said.

Croslin, 19, was sentenced on drug-related charges Monday, involving the trafficking of prescription narcotics, including oxycodone and hydrocodone, according to Assistant State Attorney Christopher Kelly.
"I am not a drug dealer," Croslin said during Monday's hearing, according to CNN affiliate WJXT.
She pleaded no contest to a 25-year sentence on similar charges last year.

At the time 5-year-old Haleigh Cummings went missing, Croslin was living in the family's mobile home with her then-husband, Ronald Cummings, Haleigh and her 4-year-old brother.

Croslin and Ronald Cummings were both arrested in January along with three others after allegedly selling about $3,900 worth of drugs to undercover officers, authorities said. The two divorced after Haleigh's disappearance.

Croslin told police she tucked Haleigh and the brother into bed about 8 p.m. February 8, 2009, and went to sleep two hours later.

She said she awoke at 3 a.m. to find Haleigh missing and a cinder block propping open a back door.
Ronald Cummings reported Haleigh missing when he returned from work at dawn.

Authorities previously said physical evidence contradicts Croslin's account of events that night. However, police have stopped short of naming Croslin as a suspect.

In televised interviews, Croslin has said she does not know what happened to Haleigh but believes "the other side of the family" knows where she is.

Police have said Cummings and Crystal Sheffield, the girl's mother, are not considered suspects.

The child remains missing, Kelly said.
