Amanda Brumfield, who is estranged from her Oscar winning dad was supposed to be looking after Olivia Madison Garcia when she died from serious head injuries in her Orlando home.
She claimed that the tot fell from her playpen, smacking her head, but as she appeared fine she didn't seek any help until two hours later, by which point it was too late, which we reported here.
But Orange County Medical Examiner Dr. Jane Garavaglia who also performed Caylee Anthony's autopsy, disputed her claims and testified that the death of Olivia Garcia was intentional.
The child's mother, Heather Murphy, said after the sentencing that she was surprised at how long a prison term Brumfield received, but that it meant little to her.
She told reporters: "None of it satisfies me. It doesn't matter...I won't ever see Olivia again."
Five-times married Thornton, whose former spouses include Angelina Jolie, has four children.
Amanda Brumfield was the product of his first marriage in the 1970s and his publicist, Arnold Robinson, said after Brumfield's arrest that the actor was estranged from his daughter "and has had no contact with her for quite some time."
Thornton won an Oscar for his screenplay for the 1996 independent film "Sling Blade".
