A couple accused of almost beating their son to death claimed his catalogue of injuries were caused by a ‘ghost’ in their home.
The pair insisted an evil spirit was responsible for the multiple bruises on the boy’s body that left him clinging to life and needing an emergency blood transfusion.
Doctors were able to save the two-year-old boy after he was rushed to a hospital emergency room covered in bruises and suffering from internal injuries, including a non-functioning kidney.
