I hope both of these parents never see the outside of a jail cell until this child is a grown man. One is as responsible for this horror as the other.
INDIANAPOLIS -- A couple charged with abusing their infant son appeared in court Friday as chilling details of the abuse the boy allegedly suffered came to light, including an incident in which they pulled the child in a tug-of-war-style fight, according to court documents.
Not guilty pleas were entered for Todd Spears and Simone Hamilton (both pictured), both 19, at their initial hearing, 6News' Julie Pursley reported.
Seven-week-old Jaden Spears remained at Riley Hospital for Children suffering from broken bones all over his tiny body.
Charles Lovett, Todd Spears' uncle, said he was in court to show support for his nephew and the infant.
"No baby should have to go through this," said Charles Lovett, Jaden Spears' great uncle.
Spears was charged with attempted murder, aggravated battery, neglect of a dependent and battery to a child.
