SATURDAY NIGHTS WITH SPARKS
WICKED
WITCH!!
A 6-year-old boy's fingers and genitals were
cut off by a woman whose sleep was disturbed by the playful child. The accused
woman, Liu Tao, was reportedly sleeping in a room at her cousin's rental home
in Shaodong county in central China’s Hunan province when the six-year-old boy
living next door and nicknamed Xiaoming went into her room to play.
Disturbed by the
child, Liu first took Xiaoming out of the room but the boy returned to the room
to disturb Liu, who instead of pushing him out again, reacted violently.
She took a kitchen
knife and scissors, and stabbed and slashed Xiaoming's fingers, head, face, and
genitals, leaving him bleeding on the ground. Liu then fled the scene but was
later captured by authorities in her village home.
According to
Xiaoming’s father, Zhou, his son had lost several fingers, and his penis was
completely removed. Zhou said: "Police
asked the suspect where she put my son's penis, but she wouldn't say."
Zhou said the missing
items were eventually found hidden in a vase and sent to the hospital where the
boy was being treated. Xiaoming is currently receiving treatment at Xiangya
Hospital in the provincial capital Changsha, where doctors said his injuries
are serious.
Doctors warned that
they may not be able to reattach his fingers and genitals as they were separated
from his body for too long. Liu faces a prison sentence of more than 10 years
for inflicting malicious bodily harm on Xiaoming.
However, she may be
shown leniency if a medical report proves that she she's mentally ill.
