Guilty said one father from Ohio, USA, on charges of kidnapping, raping and killing his 10-year-old son, who lived for years in “extreme abuse and torture” before being beaten to death, according to prosecutors.
Al Mutahan McLean, 32, has faced several charges of “extreme abuse” of his son Takoda Collins. The abuse of the child began in 2015 and ended with the death of the child on December 13, 2019, after he was “raped and beaten” by his father, said Montgomery County Attorney Matt Heck.
“Takoda suffered various abuses, which reached the point of extreme torture”, said in a statement the prosecutor’s office.
McLean faces up to 40 years in prison.
His partner, 30-year-old Amanda Hinze, also pleaded guilty last Wednesday to manslaughter and faces up to 30 years in prison.
The sentences of both are expected to be announced on September 29.
According to court documents available to the Dayton Daily News, Takoda lived in appalling conditions in his father’s house, where he was locked naked in the attic alone and often faced emotional, physical and sexual abuse.
McLean allegedly called police in 2019 when Takoda fainted after rape and his beating.
It became known from the medical examiner’s office that the death of the child was caused by a serious injury with a sharp object and suffocation, while he was immersed in water in a bathtub.
He also had bruises and bruises all over his body, while photographs show blood on the wall of the house, images that were recorded during the investigation.
The couple removed the child from school in May 2018, thus isolating him even more.
“It’s a horrible thing to do. The child lived for years an unimaginable torture. “For these two defendants to be taken to prison; this is an important step,” said prosecutor Lynda Dodd.
