Andrea Bradley had tears streaming down her face when she was sentenced in the "torture" death of her 2-year-old daughter Wednesday. Bradley got 15 years to life after pleading no contest earlier this month.  Prosecutors said Bradley and the girl's father, Glen Bates,  tortured and neglected 2-year-old Glenara Bates so severely she died in March 2015.  The deputy coroner who performed the autopsy said Glenara's death "one of the worst I've ever seen." Bradley was charged with aggravated murder, endangering children and murder as a special felony. The jury in Bates' trial found he was "the principal offender" in Glenara's torture. Bates was sentenced to death in October 2016. Bradley couldn't get the death penalty because tests showed that she has an IQ of 67, which is below the threshold for the death penalty.
