An 11 year old boy was found in my city, in far Northeast Florida, locked in an unairconditioned room. The bruises on his buttocks and legs bought people to tears when they saw him.
Another resident talked to him from outside the window and determined he was locked in and had been beaten. She immediately called police. He was left with juice and 2 small pieces of cake. He had previoulsy been made to walk through the trailer park in a dress.
It's just so heartbreaking to know a child has to go theough this kind of h***.
The officers said he was very polite, very skinny and very bruised and scraped.
The father said he was locked in there because he had eaten 12 snack cakes and he "wanted to make sure he didn't get into poison". There were hancuffs in the room the boy said had been used previously to lock hin to his closet door.
When the father and his girlfriend (who had put him in the room that morning) arrived, she ran from the scene. She has a long rap sheet (coacine, battery on apolice officer, probation violation and 2 aggravated battery charges. Sounds like a true mother.....sheesh)
It's just amazing to me. I would have called police when the child was paraded through the trailer park in a dress. At least someone got enough nerve up to call the police. Neighbors were feeding him when the police arrived.
At least someone finally did something for the poor child.
