In Kentucky, Jayda McDowell and Cody Alfred, both 32, have been arrested on child abuse charges after it was discovered that their 3-year-old daughter was only fed milk and had calcium deposits on her teeth. The couple claimed the child had a disorder preventing her from eating solid food but never obtained a medical diagnosis. They are being held on $1,000 cash bonds, and their daughter is now in social services’ care and doing well.
