An Alabama pair is facing multiple charges including sexual torture of a young boy.
The Cullman County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrests of Amy Nicole Lovell, 29, and Justin Anthony Jeffries Jr., 26. Both are charged with aggravated child abuse, sexual torture, sexual abuse of a child under the age of 12 and second-degree assault.
Jeffries also has one additional count of sexual abuse of a child under the age of 12. And, at the time of his arrest this week, he was already facing four counts of sex abuse of a child involving a different victim, court records show. His bond was revoked in those cases pending the new allegations against him.
The investigation was carried out by sheriff’s investigators with the assistance of Cullman County Department of Human Resources, the Cullman Advocacy Center, and the Cullman County District Attorney’s Office. Authorities said they determined that Lovell and Jeffries committed multiple sex crimes against the child.
Sheriff’s officials said due to the graphic nature of the crime, they are releasing little information. Court records indicate the boy was subjected to sexual contact and torture with an inanimate object and his genitals were cut with a knife.
Lovell is out on bond.
