Shawna Gatto was found guilty in April of murdering 4-year-old Kendall Chick and was sentenced in June to 50 years in prison.

Gatto was convicted in April of subjecting the girl in her care to what a judge called ‘outrageous, revolting, shocking and brutal’ abuse.

The judge also denies a motion to suppress statements the mother of Marissa Kennedy made to police about daily abuse.
