A three year old boy has been left fighting for his life after being ‘sold’ by his babysitter to two men who raped and tortured the toddler.
Police said the boy from Oklahoma was forced to drink bleach and had part of his skull torn off during the horrific assault. His face, eyes and throat were all covered in chemical burns and he had been hanged from a ceiling with a dog collar.
Investigators said Jennifer Chapman, who was looking after the boy, allegedly offered the boy to two men for sex in exchange for methamphetamine.
The two men allegedly raped and tortured the boy for several hours before returning him to 43 year old Chapman at the Oklahoma motel where she was staying with the boy’s mother Leana Lauck.
According to police when Ms Lauck, 31, saw the injuries to her son she decided against taking him to hospital for urgent treatment and instead began taking meth with her friend.
An arrest report revealed that the boy, who has not been named, suffered for 18 hours before he was taken to hospital.
A police report revealed the toddler was taken to Children’s Hospital in Oklahoma City with numerous bruises on his body.
He also had an injury on the base of his skull with the possibility of brain injury.
‘The scalp was removed, part of it,’ said family member Stacy Felkins.
‘His big sister said, ‘I saw people trying to make him drink stuff, then he went to sleep and I think he’s dead,’.
‘He may die and he’s had things happen to him that may never go away if he does make it. It makes me sick.’
‘I think jail would be too good for them,’ said Ms Felkins.
‘That’s the most evil thing you can do.’
Police say they are still searching for the two men responsible for the actual abuse.
The boy’s mother told police she knew her son was badly injured but was afraid to seek treatment for fear of what would happen to her.
She told detectives she chose to smoke meth while her son lay in agony in the same motel room.
‘To have somebody commit such an act of violence on an innocent child is horrific for anybody to see,’ said Oklahoma City Police Department Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow.
Ms Lauck has been charged with child neglect while Chapman faces similar charges.
