Chatham County Superior Court Judge James Bass Jr. called Robinson's crimes "unbelievably horrendous" during sentencing.
“My sympathies are with the victims in this case,” he said.
Robinson was convicted of felony murder March 2 for striking Lalia Hawthorne in the abdomen with his hands and committing other crimes Oct. 24, 2015, the newspaper reported. Jurors also convicted Robinson on an aggravated assault charge after he bit Nakeita Hawthorne in the leg and also hit her in the abdomen.
Prosecutors said Robinson and the girls' mother argued over alleged cheating and that Robinson attacked the children to get back at her.
