NATCHITOCHES PARISH, La- A three year old child is in the hospital. The child's mother brought the tot there after getting the little one back from a visit with their father. The gender of the child has not been released. (I only mention that because it's very hard to type this without calling the poor kid him or her)
Amber Barbo, 24 is being charged with second-degree cruelty to juveniles. Unfortunately she has since been released on a $10,000 bond.
The child's mother picked up her beloved after a visit with their father. What she encountered was her worst nightmare. The child was literally bruised from head to toe. Including but not limited to, the face, abdomen, back, arms and legs.
During the investigation pictures of the child surfaced on social media prompting several people to call the police as well. These pictures have not been released. One of the detectives called it one of the worst cases of child abuse he's ever encountered.
The father has not been arrested as of yet, however, authorities state more arrests may be forthcoming.
