A Greeley man convicted of first-degree murder in the death of an 18-month-old girl was sentenced to life in prison on Wednesday.
Andy Serrel Carter, 29, was arrested in July 2021 after police say he severely beat Emorie Goodro while babysitting her. Carter was dating Emorie’s mother at the time.
Emorie was airlifted to Children’s Hospital Colorado and later died of blunt force injuries to her head and brain, according to the 19th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.
Carter was convicted of first-degree murder by a Weld County jury on Tuesday, which carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole under Colorado law.
In a statement, Chief Deputy District Attorney Arynn Clark described Emorie as a cherished, healthy and happy child.
“It’s impossible to quantify the pain that this family has endured. It’s also impossible to quantify the happiness Emorie brought to people. This family now has a life sentence of their own as they move forward and have to live without this absolutely precious and perfect little girl,” Clark said.
Carter’s attorney could not immediately be reached for comment.
