A vile thug repeatedly hanged a toddler while videotaping the abuse.<\/p>\n

David J Coleman has been jailed for up to 52 years for the sickening acts which took place on the same day.<\/p>\n

The 38-year-old pleaded guilty to two counts of child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury.<\/p>\n

Coleman wrapped a scarf around the two-year-old girl's neck and let her hang until she lost consciousness.<\/p>\n

He recorded the abuse on his then-girlfriend's daughter last December, the Omaha World-Herald reports.<\/p>\n

Coleman, a nine-time felon, was sentenced to spend a minimum of 42 years behind bars with parole but could face 52 in total, along with another four years for being a felon in possession of a knife.<\/p>\n

Douglas County District Judge Duane Dougherty said "there was extreme violence here" when speaking at the sentencing.<\/p>\n

He added: "When someone harms a child that age, or no matter the age, in that nature it\u2019s as bad as it gets."<\/p>\n

The horrifying abuse took place on December 14 in Nebraska, and fortunately, the little girl survived the choking.<\/p>\n

Coleman reportedly took the girl to a storage unit to commit the heinous crime and used his mobile to film the girl as she struggled to breathe, with each recording being around a minute long.<\/p>\n

The girl's mother stumbled upon the abusive video while scrolling through her boyfriend's phone.<\/p>\n

However, prosecutor Molly Keane has warned it's not possible to know the psychological damage the child has suffered as a result.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has changed this child\u2019s life in ways we may never know,\u201d Keane said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow she survived this torture is a mystery. But she did \u2014 luckily for her, luckily for her family and luckily for this defendant. Because he would be charged with first-degree murder.\u201d<\/p>\n
