I wonder what party these two vote for? https://www.yahoo.com/news/locked-8-old-boy-dark-210312349.html TOMS RIVER - Two women, convicted of beating their 8-year-old son and locking him for months in a dark room with no bed, furniture, toys or toilet were ordered Friday to be locked in prison cells for years. Superior Court Judge Lisa A. Puglisi sentenced Helecia Morris, 41, of Brick, the biological mother of the victim, to eight years in prison for child endangerment, plus an additional four years in prison for several unrelated, less serious offenses. Puglisi sentenced Donna Jung, 57, who was married to Morris during the period of child abuse but later moved to Lehigh Valley, Florida, to seven years in prison for child endangerment. "We don't even treat inmates at the Ocean County Jail that way, yet this was okay for an 8-year-old?'' asked Mara Brater, assistant Ocean County prosecutor. "This was absolutely horrific,'' Brater said. "It will haunt me for a long time in terms of what this child had to go through at the hands of his mother.'' The judge said the women can become eligible for parole after serving about one-third of their sentences. The two women stood trial in May, and a jury found both of them guilty of second-degree child endangerment. "In April of 2015, Ms. Morris beat him with a belt so severely that he could not sit down at school,'' Puglisi said, recounting photographs introduced at the trial that showed deep purple bruises on the boy's thighs and buttocks caused by a buckle or other hard object. That's when the state Division of Child Protection and Permanency began investigating. But sometime after the agency closed that probe, Jung punched the boy in the face, splitting his lip, which led the women to keep him home from school for four days to avoid further scrutiny. But instead, the child's absence from school prompted another investigation which ultimately led to the women being charged. Puglisi noted that the boy testified at the trial that he would urinate in a heating vent in his room so as not to soil the carpet. He had to eat alone in the dark while listening to the rest of his family dining in the kitchen next door, she said. "He said they removed the light bulb because he was bored and he flicked the light on and off, and it aggravated them,'' the judge said. The two women also tried to convince the boy's second grade teacher that he was "a bad kid,'' although no one from his school thought he had behavioral problem, Puglisi said. In fact, the foster mother who took the boy in when he was removed from his home "testified he was a delight - wanting to help,'' the judge said. Brater, the assistant prosecutor, noted that the women also kept a lock on the refrigerator to keep the underweight child out of it. "One would think if your child is underweight to that degree, you wouldn't put a lock on the fridge, but they did,'' Brater said. Morris, at times during her sentencing hearing, shook her head in disagreement with what the assistant prosecutor was saying. At other times, she cried.
