The 58-year-old was convicted of Assault of a Child 3rd Degree and is violating the terms of his supervision.
He has a felony warrant for his arrest.
“He beat him viciously, punching him, striking him, kicking him and at the end of the beatings, he would often send his 10-year old son out of the house stripped naked and he has to then fend for himself.
