(AP) – Prosecutors say a 20-month-old Topeka girl was burned intentionally on her feet before dying, apparently from suffocation.

The information about the abuse suffered by Mireya Carmen Ortiz Rodriguez was revealed Friday during a hearing in which her father’s girlfriend pleaded no contest to her death on August 12th.

21-year-old Johana Iveth Villegas-Gonzalez made the plea to a charge of voluntary manslaughter. The charge was reduced from second-degree murder in a plea agreement.

Villegas-Gonzales will be sentenced Thursday.
