UPDATE 10/08/08 -  Sharon Twocrows and Chasity Kubie were each sentenced to seven years in prison for their roles in the abuse of Twocrows’ four-year-old grandson.  The seven-year sentences were the maximum allowed under Missouri law for a single count of felony child abuse.  Twocrows and Kubie pled guilty in June. Paul Kubie will face a jury trial on December 18. He is being tried on four charges of endangering the welfare of a child and one count of child abuse, all Class C felony charges punishable by up to seven years in prison per count.
