    Just one day after sentencing a Pennsylvania man to death for
    the rape, murder and dismemberment of a 14-year-old girl, a
    county judge on Friday sentenced the girl’s adoptive mother to
    life in prison.

    "Evil attracts evil,” the judge said.

    Sara Packer, 44, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder,
    kidnapping, abuse of a corpse and 16 other charges related to
    the 2016 murder of her adopted daughter, Grace Packer. On
    Thursday, the elder Packer's boyfriend, Jacob Sullivan, was
    sentenced to death as a co-conspirator.

    Bucks County Judge Diane Gibbons shared her absolute revulsion
    while sentencing Packer to life in prison.

    "Evil attracts evil. Evil recognizes evil. And in Jacob
    Sullivan, you found one of your own," Gibbons said.

    "You like rape. You like murder. That's a fact," said Gibbons,
    decrying the "rot" and "warped depravity" on display in the case.

    Prosecutors said that Sullivan and Packer planned a rape-murder
    fantasy for weeks before taking Grace to a rented home in
    Abington, where they attacked her in July 2016.

    Sullivan reportedly punched the 14-year-old girl in the face as
    her mother looked on, philly.com reported. He then took Viagra
    and raped the child.

    Grace was bound, gagged and drugged and left to die in the hot
    attic, but when the couple returned the following day, they
    found that she was still alive.

    Sullivan then strangled Grace.

    "You like rape. You like murder. That's a fact,"

    — Bucks County Judge Diane Gibbons
    The couple stored Grace's body in cat litter for months to mask
    the stench of the dead body but when authorities came to
    question them about her whereabouts in October, Sullivan and
    Packer dismembered the body using a bone saw, dumping it in a
    remote area where it was later found by hunters.

    Packer testified last week that she wanted her daughter dead and
    admitted to taking part in the plot to kill her.

    Packer lost her job at Northampton County's children and youth
    department in 2010 after her husband at the time, David Packer,
    was sent to prison for sexually assaulting Grace and another
    foster child. But child welfare authorities did not remove Grace
    from the home, despite evidence of abuse.

    The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services launched an
    investigation after Grace's murder. Its report was sealed while
    Packer and Sullivan were being prosecuted but is expected to be
    made public on Monday.
