A Jacksonville couple is facing charges after a child was reportedly bathed in scalding water and received second- and third-degree burns on approximately half of her body.
The report shows the child was sent to the burn unit at UF Health in Gainesville for treatment. Na’Duania Jones, 22, and Charles Francis Jr., 20, were both charged with aggravated child abuse and neglect.
Jones told police, the report states, that he asked her to hurry home because the child had burns all over her body, saying the child soiled herself so he gave her a bath in the sink.
