Jacob William Wight Sr. was not hesitant when President Judge Stephen P. Leskine asked him why he tied his 6-year-old daughter bare in his cage.

“Mainly because she did what she did not belong … She got up, she was fridge and ran around the house, letting people sleep,” White said.

On Friday, a 38-year-old resident of Braunsville declared his guilt for more than 150 charges, including an attack in aggravating circumstances, illegal restraint of liberty and unlawful imprisonment.

The weight and mother of the child, 34-year-old Mimi Frost, were arrested after the police were summoned on January 7, 2024 to the couple’s house in the quarter of 1300 on Sheridan Avenue, as their 6-year-old daughter did not respond.

According to the police, a 6-year-old girl was not only tied to nude, but also forced to eat their own excrement, wet on her, beat handles and fired from BB guns.

According to the police, the baby was poorly eating, there were bruises, scars and open ulcers on the body. The children’s hospital report describes that the girl suffered from “severe hypothermia” with a temperature below 90 degrees.

When Leskine asked Weita, who forced the child to put in a cage, White replied, “We are both.”

Last month, Judge Feyett Joseph M. George Jr. condemned Frost, who declared a common guilt at more than 100 accusation points, up to 35-70 years in prison.

While pleading guilty includes a specific punishment, agreed by prosecutors and defendants, sentences for the general recognition of guilt, such as those who introduced weight and Frost, are determined by the judge.

Leskine said hearing a sentence that is scheduled for the next month would probably last longer than usual so that he can listen to the evidence of both parties before deciding on the sentence.

At the hearing of the sentence of Frost, the district prosecutor Mike Aubl said that, despite the fact that the child is now happy and physically recovering, it may take a long time to recover from the soulful wounds caused by her biological parents.

“() The long-term consequences that a 6-year-old child consumes her own urine and faeces and live in a cage, she will tie her hands behind her back and tie her feet to her hands,” Obeli said for a while.
