'SADISTIC' |
AN EVIL dad who stuffed his son in the oven after burning his hands on the hob will spend just 24 days behind bars for the 'sadistic' attack. James Moss, who stands at 6ft2 and weighs over 270lbs thought his then nine-year-old son, Christopher had stolen $20 from his wallet.
So after stripping the boy, he dragged him in the kitchen where he battered him with a spatula and heated the hobs on the stove top.
Then when he deemed them hot enough, he forced the boys hands onto the burners and held them there until the charred skin began to peel off. He then punched the boys face and forced him into the oven, holding the door shut and threatening to burn him alive, despite the
boys pleading.
Finally he relented, but threw the still naked Christopher, now 11, out of the front door of their Staten Island, NY home, where he waited crying until his mom came home and rushed him to hospital. boys pleading.
Richmond County DA Daniel Donovan called the case "sadistic".
He said: "In over 15 years as a district attorney and an assistant district attorney, this was one of the most shocking and sadistic cases of child abuse I have ever prosecuted."
Astonishingly his son was the most influential in securing the short sentence for Moss, who could have got a maximum sentence of seven years for his grotesque punishment.
Inseatd he will serve four months of weekends at Rikers Island prison and five years probation after Christopher told the court he had forgiven his father.
