The couple were arrested Sunday after a relative saw the toddler’s stab wound and other injuries, and called police, prosecutors said.
The parents of an Orange County toddler were accused of stabbing and beating their daughter and were charged with felonies Tuesday, authorities said.
“A 2-year-old child should not have to suffer the horrors of being beaten and stabbed — especially by the very people who are supposed to do everything they can to keep her safe,” said Dist. Atty. Todd Spitzer, who called the case’s initial facts “beyond disturbing.” Santos Salgado Beltran, 34, faces one count each of attempted murder and torture, prosecutors said. He also faces two felony enhancements of causing great bodily injury to a child under the age of 5, and one felony enhancement of the personal use of a deadly weapon.
