Horror worldwide is causing a couple from Missouri, who allegedly put their four-month-old baby in the microwave.
According to the court, the unfortunate boy had undergone treatment for facial burns in April, while he also suffered a skull fracture and subcutaneous hematoma due to the concentration of blood between the brain and the skull.
The mother, for her part, told a social worker that her husband put the baby in the oven to play a TV commercial. To the doctors, however, the couple stated about the burning on their face that it was just a rash and the mark was created by a chemical cleanser.
This statement was also supported by the social worker, who stated that the mother admitted that her husband put the baby in the microwave oven and lit it for a while.
Derick Boyce-Slezak and Mikala Boyce-Slezak, both parents, have been arrested and are being held on $ 500.000 bail, while it remains unknown why authorities were seven months late in filing charges against the parents.
