Dustin Walker (34) and Cherie Walker (33) were accused because they did not provide supervision nor medical care of their daughter during pregnancy and after delivery. The Assistant District Prosecutor Janet Hutson told Kotv as a couple claim that he was not aware of the pregnancy of the girl.
Court documents, however, state that the child was in the 36th week of pregnancy. The eleventh year old during pregnancy did not receive any medical care and has not visited the doctor for more than a year. After childbirth at home, it was urgently transferred to the hospital.
“I was horrified when I found out that the 11-year-old girl gave birth, she didn’t have medical care and no one was with her,” Hutson told Kotv. “This child is traumatized. It passed through a terrible temptation. Not only did she stay pregnant at that age, but she was born at home without medical help. It will mark her for the rest of her life,” she added.
Hutson also mentioned that the girl and her brothers and sisters are most likely educated at home, outside the regular education system. All children were seized by their parents. Their grandmother Michelle claims that no one in the family knew about the pregnancy. “They talk about my daughter and son-in-law like monsters,” she said.
Parents are currently in Mussogee County custody, and their bail has been determined in the amount of $ 100,000. The court should go out in front of the Court. September, while the fatherhood of the newborn is still determined.
The Prosecutor Hutson reminded the public of the importance of reporting the suspicion of the children: “I want people to know that they can contact the police and the district prosecutor when they see something that could be abuse or neglect.”
