A South Salt Lake woman on Friday admitted to fatally beating her
5-year-old daughter last year.

Angeles Cadillo-Castro, 32, was initially charged with first-degree
felony murder for the July 27 death of the victim, identified in court
documents only as “S.G.E.”

Murder is punishable by a prison term of 15 years to life. But
Cadillo-Castro pleaded guilty in 3rd District Court to a lesser charge
of child-abuse homicide, which is punishable by five years to life.

Sentencing is set for May 13 before Judge Judith Atherton.

A spatula likely was used to beat the girl, according to a search
warrant. She had bruising across her body “consistent with a severe and
prolonged assault,” police said.
