SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. (AP) - A 12-year-old boy found in a Spokane Valley home raided by police reportedly had been hit, made to pick up dog feces with his bare hands and threatened with a chain saw.
According to court documents, Robert D. Pearson admitted to police he threatened to cut the boy into pieces, causing the boy to curl up in a ball in terror.
Pearson told police he was trying to scare the boy, who had been brought to him by the boy’s father to be disciplined for stealing.
The Spokesman-Review reported police raided the home Tuesday, looking for stolen property.
