Golf
club, 2 x 4, belt used on the child
Jurors will begin hearing evidence and testimony in a case of aggravated injury to a child with a deadly weapon this morning in state district court.
Ronald
Wayne Jackson has been in McLennan County Jail for 438 days since his
arrest on the charge.
Prosecutors
allege the child's mother, Mr. Jackson's girlfriend Clorice Fahle,
stood by and did nothing while the father beat the 9-year-old
boy with a two by four, a golf club, and a belt. She is charged with the
same offense by omission for doing nothing to stop the brutal
beatings, which took place in May, 2011.
Police arrested the couple after teachers at a La Vega elementary school
noticed the child was heavily bruised and limping. They sent him to a
doctor who learned an assailant had possibly fractured his right hand
and foot.
