A Virginia woman's boyfriend was sentenced to two life prison terms for fatally beating her daughter and then stopping her from calling 911, according to a report.

A Virginia man will die in prison after a judge sentenced him to two life terms for bludgeoning little Harper Mitchell and then refusing to get her medical care until it was too late. A jury convicted Andrew Byrd, 37, in March of aggravated murder, aggravated malicious wounding and a slew of other charges for the slaying of his girlfriend's 2-year-old daughter in 2020.

The child's father, TJ Mitchell, told the judge how much he missed his little girl and how difficult it was to take her off life support. 'No person, let alone a little girl, a little angel, should be hurt,' Circuit Judge Joey Showalter said before handing down the sentence. Amanda Mitchell has pending charges for child abuse, cruelty and drug possession. Byrd faces additional charges stemming from the alleged abuse of Mitchell's boys.
