The adoptive brother of a 16-year-old girl who was tortured and then died of malnutrition in her family home, has reached a plea deal with prosecutors.
The tragic teenager was found in the Iowa home she shared with her adoptive parents, who have also been charged.
She weighed just 56 pounds (25 kilograms) - the average weight of a seven-year-old girl.
Her brother, Justin Dale Ray, 22, faces two counts of child endangerment and two counts of willful injury.
Police had previously revealed Ray 'drop-kicked' Sabrina down their basement stairs and she was tortured and held captive by other family members before her death.
The injuries caused by Ray causing Sabrina serious injury that prevented her from walking, talking or eating or drinking normally afterward.
He is also accused of kicking Sabrina in the chin causing a bleeding cut and bruising, says the
Des Moines Register.
Court records say a hearing is scheduled Friday for 22-year-old Ray. The records don't outline the deal or how he'll plead.
Ray previously pleaded not guilty to two counts of child endangerment and two of willful injury.
A cousin who lived with the family in Perry, 20-year-old Josie Raye Bousman, is charged with child endangerment resulting in death and three counts of first-degree kidnapping after she allegedly admitted to injuring Sabrina and denying her food and water, reported the station KCCI8.
The teen's grandmother, 62-year-old Carla Bousman, faces several charges, including including aiding and abetting kidnapping, child abuse resulting in death and obstruction for allegedly altering evidence at the crime scene and providing false evidence.
The girl's adoptive parents, Marc and Misty Ray, were away on a trip to Disney World with one of their sons when the 911 call was placed, but arrived around the same time as the first responders.
Both parents were arrested and each charged with child endangerment resulting in death and 10 other child endangerment, negligence and kidnapping counts.
The Rays also ran an in-home child care, and police are investigating whether any abuse occurred with those children, officials said.
Three other children were removed from the home, including two girls - ages 10 and 12 - who were also adopted and are now under a doctor's care, according to police.
Sabrina was placed in Misty and Marc Ray's home in 2011 after her biological father, a recovering methamphetamine addict and alcoholic named Joseph Busch and his wife, Karena, pleaded guilty to child endangerment.
The Rays initially took in Sabrina as a foster child and formally adopted her in 2013.
Sabrina also had an older half-sister, who is now aged 27, and four younger brothers, who went to live with relatives or other foster families.
Her birth mother, Vicki Hollander, who for a time lived with a registered sex offender and was investigated for child abuse, has died of cancer.
