An arrest warrant affidavit provides even more horrific details about the Thursday arrest of a woman and her boyfriend for the alleged abuse of a 3-year-old child.
It’s a case that Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar called “infuriating and sad.”
The child was hospitalized three times within a month with serious injuries. He’s currently in the hospital and his recovery is expected to be long, Salazar said.
The child’s mother, Brandy Laurel, 24, and her boyfriend, Justin Garcia, 25, are each charged with injury to a child causing serious bodily injury – reckless, a second-degree felony.
According to the affidavit, the boy was taken to Methodist Children’s Hospital on April 22 for a head injury but hospital workers hadn’t called authorities since abuse had not been suspected.
A deputy was called to Methodist Children’s Hospital for a report of an injured child. The charge nurse told the deputy that the child had a brain bleed, swelling all over the head, a black eye and bruises on his back and legs that were in different stages of healing.
