Last Thursday Christine Gelineau, 53, received a 9-30 year prison sentence for torturing her son, according to NY Daily. Gelineau was also accused of stabbing him with a pen and making him eat worms.
According to Huffington post, the son, who is now 19, spoke to his “ex-mother” in court, saying that what she did to him cannot be forgiven and that she almost killed him by having him take three antidepressants and two muscle relaxers. He went onto say that she beat him, starved him and that she almost chopped his penis off, and did not allow him to bathe. He concluded his statement and said that he wished her goodbye.
According to Inquisitr, the incident involving Gelineau burning her son’s penis occurred in April 2012.
Gelineau said that she did burn the tip of her son’s penis but only because he threatened to have sex with her. She said that she thought her kid was dirty, so she grabbed hold of his penis, twisted it and then burnt the tip for a few seconds.
Another suspect in the case, Daniel ‘Tyler’ Cantrell, said that he witnessed Gelineau pressure the son to eat human feces, or he would have his penis burnt, which happened soon after he consumed the feces.
Cantrell, who is 20, admitted that he helped her abuse her son by tying him down and then walking away as his mother went ahead and burnt him.
Amy Nason, 29, is a third suspect and she is due in court in the future. She’s being accused on making the victim eat things such as soap and worms, and consume urine. What makes the case worse is that the victim was born with mental deficiencies.
