Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court Judge Brendan Sheehan admonished her as he handed down the sentence.
Speaking sternly, he said Candelario left her child trapped in a tiny prison for days while she was out having a good time.
The bond between a mother and a child is one of the most purest and most sacred bonds. Its a relationship built on love, trust, and unwavering protection. You committed the ultimate act of betrayal, Sheehan said.
That little baby persevered, waiting for someone to save her. And you could have done that with a simple phone call. Instead, I see photos of you on a beach while your child was eating her own feces in an attempt to survive.
The judge sentenced her to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Just as you didnt let Jailyn out of her confinement until she died, so too you should spend the rest of your life in a cell without freedom, Sheehan said. The only difference is that prison will at least feed you.
