A Queens woman was sentenced Friday for beating and starving her young step-daughter.
35-year-old Sheetal Ranot will serve 15 years behind bars after being convicted on multiple charges of assault and endangering the welfare of a child.
The Queens DA's Office says for three years inside her Ozone Park home, Ranot frequently and viciously beat her 12-year-old step-daughter.
She also routinely denied her food, and in one case, hospitalized the little girl after beating her with a broken metal broom handle.
Prosecutors say at one point, the 12-year-old weighed just 58 pounds.
The woman's husband, Rajesh Ranot, is also charged with second and third degree assault for allegedly taking part in abusing and starving the little girl, who is also his biological daughter.
He is set to be tried at a later date.
