10 years for Yakima mother who starved daughters

YAKIMA COUNTY, Wash. -- Yakima mother Kai Martinez was accused of starving and abusing her young twin daughters. This was after they had been taken away from her right after birth, only to be returned by a court order just a year ago. Martinez was in court Wednesday for her sentencing where she apologized for her actions.

"As a mother, I was entrusted to be loving, caring and nurturing unconditionally," Martinez said. "And to be frank, I failed miserably by doing the exact opposite."
