COLLINSVILLE, Okla. (KFOR) -- KJRH reports Rogers County deputies spoke with Jeannette Wilson after she reported her 3-year-old daughter had been abused for six days.
Wilson told investigators that Gustus Pennington had used a belt, a board, and a shock collar to abuse the child. Burn marks were visible on the child's neck from the shock collar prongs, KJRH reports.
Inside the home, deputies found a table that the child had been strapped to and a camera that was used to monitor her while she was locked in a bedroom. The child allegedly was told to hold a sign to the camera that read “I am a liar.”
Jeannette Wilson was arrested on complaints of child abuse and enabling child abuse. Gustus Pennington was arrested on complaints of kidnapping or abduction, assault, child abuse, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
