Tracy Ferriter, a Florida mother, pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated child abuse, false imprisonment, and neglect of a child after her adoptive son was found locked in an 8×8 box in their garage. She was sentenced to 10 years of probation with one year of house arrest. This follows her husband Timothy Ferriter’s sentencing to five years in prison and five years of probation for the same incident in November. The discovery occurred when police investigated a report of their adopted son running away and found him in the box at their Jupiter residence in February 2022.
