'A young mother admitted on Thursday to gluing her two-year-old daughter's hands to a wall and beating her into a coma.

When Elizabeth Escalona, 23, left the courtroom after pleading guilty to injury to a child charges stemming from the horrific abuse in September.

She told reporters afterward, 'I have no comment, and only God can judge me. That’s all I gotta say.'

The toddler, Joselyn Cedillo, was briefly on life support in a coma.

According to police records, glue and paint were stuck to her palms, with skin torn away in places.
...
Escalona could face life in prison if convicted.

She remains eligible for criminal adjudication, which would leave her without a criminal conviction on her record.

The girl and three other siblings were taken into custody.'
