    Federal authorities said Teddy Bear Paradise, earlier known as Denise O'Neal, of Houston was sentenced for mailing a letter that threatened the life of Obama, the Houston Chronicle reported.
     
    The woman was sentenced Tuesday in a federal court in Houston. She had pleaded guilty in August for threatening the life of the president.
