A 46-year-old woman in Delaware will spend the rest of her life behind bars for torturing and abusing her two stepchildren in such a horrific fashion that the presiding judge called it “the most extensive and persistent evil” he had ever encountered.

Kent County Superior Court Judge Jeffrey J. Clark on Thursday ordered Mary Vinson to serve 106 years in a state correctional facility for the “hell” she put the two children through, authorities announced.

Mary Vinson’s husband, 37-year-old Charles Vinson, also received a significant prison sentence, with Clark ordering him to serve 49 years behind bars.

As previously reported by Law&Crime, the Vinsons were convicted in September on dozens of felony counts for the cruel treatment of their children, which included making them stand for long periods, withholding food, force-feeding them, and violently and repetitively physically assaulting the victims.

Mary Vinson pleaded to 42 felonies, including six counts of first-degree child abuse, two counts of kidnapping, four counts of strangulation, and two counts of conspiracy, among other charges. She faced a minimum of 30 years and a maximum of 444 years.

Charles Vinson pleaded to 12 felonies, including three counts of first-degree child abuse, two counts of kidnapping, two counts of intimidation and one count of second-degree assault. He faced a minimum sentence of 10 years and a maximum of 158 years.

“These children went through hell,” Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings said in a statement following the sentencing hearing. “Now they never have to worry about their abusers again. Even when these cases are strong, they are not easy. The facts are chilling. Knowing what these children experienced weighs on all of us. But knowing that they are safe now is why we do this work. I’m grateful to the prosecutors and law enforcement who rescued them from this torture.”
