The girl testified she was so hungry that she ate toilet paper after she was locked in the bathroom, the prosecutor’s office said.
The depraved malnourishment and forcing the girl to stand outside in cold temperatures in just a diaper led her to go into cardiac arrest in October 2017, which she survived but continued to face abuse afterward, prosecutors said.
The two were found guilty of felony injury to a child with an enhancement for producing great bodily harm, and a misdemeanor count of injury to a child after they were arrested in 2019. Williamson also said that the Buthmans are not the typical criminals she deals with in court and putting them in a jail cell would only be done to send a message to the public that “people who do this sort of thing go to prison,” according to the newspaper.
She also said the husband and wife have suffered “substantial penalties” outside the legal system, the publication reported.
