PITTSBURGH (AP) – Prosecutors say a man has been sentenced to 23 months to 46 months in prison, which amounts to time served, in the death of his infant daughter almost four years ago. The Allegheny County district attorney’s office had sought five to 10 years at Wednesday’s sentencing of 33-year-old Joseph Swidorsky, who pleaded guilty in April to involuntary manslaughter. Swidorsky has been held in the county jail since October 2015 in the death of 5-week-old Braelyn Swidorsky. Police said the Brighton Heights resident was bathing the infant in the bathroom in June 2015 when her mother walked in and found her blue and unresponsive. She died later that night. A medical examiner said the child’s death was due to a skull fracture and brain hemorrhaging.
