27-Year-Old Mother And Her Boyfriend Allegedly Abused Kids By Torturing Them With Blowtorch
Ashleigh Ableman, 27, and Howard Anderson, 53, were booked into Dale County Jail Oct. 5 on charges of torture/willful abuse of a child, according to Dale County Sheriff’s Office online records.
The couple is accused of burning the children several times, and investigators say there is evidence of additional abuse, WDHN reports.
The sheriff’s office did not immediately respond to a request for additional information on the case. It was not immediately clear if either Ableman or Anderson had retained lawyers.
In Alabama, the torture and willful abuse of a child is considered a Class C felony, which, following a conviction, may carry a sentence of 1 to 10 years or a fine of as much as $15,000.
No bond has yet been set for the couple.
