A Fayette County mother charged with abusing her 6-year-old daughter has been sentenced. Fayette County District Attorney Mike Aubele announced Tuesday that Mimi Frost, 24, was sentenced to 35 to 70 years. She previously pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including false imprisonment, aggravated assault and strangulation. Frost and her husband Jacob Weight were accused of locking their 6-year-old daughter naked in a dog cage, beating her and denying her food. Aubele previously told Channel 11 the girl was a heartbeat away from death when first responders were called to the Brownsville home for a report of an unresponsive child in January. A nephew living at the home testified against Frost and Weight in February, explaining he was instructed to lock the girl in the cage and forced to physically harm her. Weight is still awaiting trial for his alleged role in the abuse.
