Last month, a grand jury indicted Denise Baton, 24, and Jardain Copeland, 26, both of Suffolk, on multiple child abuse charges. In December, a doctor examining the 8-month-old boy, reported the abuse to police.

Suffolk public information officer Debbie George stated: “He only weighed 10 pounds. He notified police and Social Services began their investigation. The child was taken from his home as well as his older sister.”

The boy and his older sister are both now in foster care, and reportedly doing well.

If convicted, both Baton and Copeland face up to 15 years in prison.
