(KSL News) A Utah man found guilty of severly abusing a two-year-old boy is expected to be sentenced today.

Michael Barber was watching his girlfriend's son when he critically injured the toddler.

Barber called 911, saying the boy slipped in the bathtub. But doctors said the fractured skull, broken shoulders and clavicle weren't consistent with a fall.

Police spent more than a month looking for Barber. An anonymous tip led to his arrest last year. Barber was found guilty in April.
