JUST IN | A judge rejected the proposed plea agreement that would have allowed two alleged child abusers to avoid jail time, serve three years’ probation and then have the convictions expunged from their record. Their trial is now set for December.
HOWARD COUNTY — A Howard County judge has rejected a proposed plea agreement that would have allowed two alleged child abusers to avoid jail time, serve three years’ probation and then have the convictions expunged from their record.
Dunn says the little boy, who is now three years old, struggles to hear and walk as a result of his injuries. When they were arrested in May 2020, Trueblood spent 10 days in the Howard County Jail and Jennings was locked up for 3 days. Court records show while there were other adults and children living in the home, Jennings and Trueblood were the boy’s primary caregivers.
“Someone did this to this little boy,” said Dunn. “He cardiac arrested twice. He had multiple brain surgeries. He had broken ribs, a broken wrist, and for this just to be swept away like it's nothing kills me.”
