Couple Sentenced In Child Neglect Case In Ohio
Judge Malcolm Thomson sentenced Beverly Schuman to six months and Lester Schuman to three months in Toledo House of Correction after they admitted their 18 month old daughter Barbara Jean was neglected. The case, brought by the Lorain County Humane Society, followed the infant being rushed to Berea Community Hospital in April and hospital doctors deeming her near death. The parents claimed delays were due to lack of transportation, but the judge urged they should have sought help sooner. The child is now in Erie County welfare custody, and the Schumans had recently lived in Lorain County moments before the incident.
