The 24-year old mom Starkeisha Brown and her 21-year old girlfriend Krystal Matthews have been arrested for extreme torture on this little boy. Now we've learned a third women, a 26-year old babysitter, has also been arrested.
According to investigators, this 5-year old has endured the worst imaginable pain inflicted by these three women over the last several years. Police say they had no idea this abuse was going on, until now. A neighbor, who noticed the boy abandoned in his South LA home over the weekend, called police. The following details of this abuse will bring tears to your eyes because they're so beyond comprehension. The women are accused of burning the boy with cigarettes on his body and genitals, forcing him to sit in his own urine, burning his hands on a stove and extreme starvation...causing his stomach to protrude. Over the weekend, I was covering the story while these three alleged child abusers were on the run, and I can't tell you how happy I was to hear that these monsters are now off the streets. To me, there's nothing more cowardly than abuse on a child, and the details of this abuse case just make me sick.
Doctors say the 5-year old is suffering from kidney failure because of malnutrition. A trust fund has now been set up for this little guy. You can find details on how to donate at our website... KTLA.com
