City Magistrate Faith McGusty has deferred sentencing for Althea Massiah pending the findings of a probation report.
Massiah pleaded guilty to a charge of unlawful assault causing actual bodily harm. The act was committed by her, on her six-year-old child.
According to reports, the child was discovered with scars about his body earlier this week, by teachers at a City school after he cried out in pain whenever he was touched.
The child bore marks on his neck, arms and a few on the face. His legs were visibly swollen. The child also had old scars about his body from previous beatings.
The brutal beatings were inflicted upon the child by his mother, because he had been playing too much.
Police Corporal, Seon Blackman presented the prosecution’s case. This matter comes up again on October 22, for sentencing, in the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts.
