Mom Sentenced for Causing Amputation
Posted by: xantham
A woman was sentenced to at least five years in prison after pleading guilty to tying her son to a doorknob so tightly that he developed gangrene and lost a leg.

Tanekeia Justice, 30, was sentenced Thursday to five to seven years on a charge of felonious child abuse involving serious and permanent injury.

The 4-year-old malnourished boy was tied to a doorknob in 2004 to prevent him from attempting to feed himself at night, prosecutor Mitchell Garrell said. When the boy tried to free himself, the restraining cord wound more tightly around his leg and cut off the blood supply, Garrell said.

"It was horrifying," Garrell said. "That child screamed all night long and no one helped him."
