Woman convicted of child abuse in hot sauce case
AN Alaska woman was convicted yesterday of misdemeanor child abuse after squirting hot sauce into the mouth of her adopted Russian son as punishment in what prosecutors said was a ploy to get on a TV show.
Prosecutors also said Jessica Beagley, 36, of Anchorage made the 7-year-old boy stand in a cold shower when he misbehaved.
In closing arguments on Monday, prosecutor Cynthia Franklin said Beagley recorded the punishment on October 21, 2010, for a segment of the show titled "Mommy Confessions."
Beagley's defense lawyer countered that she made the video and eventually went on the show because she was desperate to find help for her son, a Russian orphan with psychological and emotional problems.
Beagley was forced to use unconventional means of punishment because traditional methods didn't work, attorney William Ingaldson said.
The eight-minute video shows Beagley confronting the boy about misbehaving in school and lying, then pouring hot sauce into the crying child's mouth and not allowing him to spit it out for more than a minute.
