According to BCSO, the child would inform their mother, Rosa Cibany, about the abuse but the mother would respond saying they deserved it.
The doctors examination found that the victim’s injuries were consistent with their testimony and further stated that the child needed to see medical attention due to both suspects failing to do so after the incident occurred which was approximately 2 weeks prior.
Both suspects were interviewed at the Bradford County Sheriff’s Office and subsequently arrested.
