A mom who pleaded guilty last month to abusing her 7-year-old daughter to death and lying about her health to rake in charity donations has learned her fate.
and lied about her health to get handouts from charities worth at least $100,000 was sentenced to 16 years in prison as part of a plea deal that threw out murder charges.
"This truth about Olivia has caused such a deep pain that it continues to ravage me every day," said a statement from Gautreau that was read at the hearing by a prosecutor. Gautreau attended the hearing by video with a picture of his granddaughter at his side, his eyes tearing up during the proceedings.
The video put out by Turner was one of many clips highlighting the little girl's battle with disease and death, which authorities said was used by her mother to dupe doctors and call for favors and donations to help ease her daughter's pain. Turner moved to Colorado from Texas with her three daughters and told doctors over the years, beginning in 2012, that Olivia was sick with numerous ailments and diseases, convincing medical professionals to perform surgeries and fill prescriptions for illnesses that she didn't have.
