DENVER—Two parents accused of severely abusing their infant son have each been sentenced to 40 years in prison for the boy’s death.

The Denver Post ( ) reports 29-year-old Calvin Pitts and 22-year-old Amanda Deleon pleaded guilty Friday to child abuse resulting in death. As part of a plea deal, prosecutors agreed to dismiss first-degree murder charges against the Denver couple.

Court records say 3-month-old Sanai Deleon-Pitts suffered numerous abrasions, fractures and burns—including a burn to the sole of his foot from a lit marijuana cigarette—before he died June 11, 2011.
