Mom and Boyfriend Accused of Brutally Abusing Toddler

A mother was released on bond while her boyfriend remains in jail after they were accused of abusing and injuring the woman’s daughter, but the couple said the youngster’s bones had been shattered due to a genetic medical condition.

According to reports, on January 8, a child’s mother brought her to Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola. After she was examined, she was diagnosed with a broken arm, broken ribs, and broken legs, in addition to two missing teeth, and marks that looked like bruises and teeth marks on several parts of her body. The medical staff reported that some of those injuries seemed to be from an earlier time since they were partially healed. The hospital believed the injuries were caused by child abuse, and they notified the authorities. Law enforcement from the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation.

The authorities questioned her about her 29-year-old boyfriend’s proximity to the child.
