A Putnam County woman was arrested twice in the past six days on battery and child abuse charges, according to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office.
Candice Stroud’s first arrest was Feb. 18 on a battery charge. She was then arrested again on Feb. 23 on child abuse charges, which according to deputies, are a charge that stems from her first arrest.
The sheriff’s office said her husband was seeking an injunction against Stroud when he showed deputies videos of her abusing a child. Investigators also interviewed the child who Stroud is accusing of abusing. The child told investigators that she was hit in the face “several times with a phone.” Curtis Fallgatter, a former federal prosecutor, called this situation “unusual” as in his decades of practicing he hadn’t seen a case similar to Stroud’s.
Since the reports detail allegations of child abuse, DCF has to investigate, Fallgatter said. Depending on their findings, it could impact how Stroud deals with certain children moving forward.
