A Utah mother is under arrest after authorities say she unnecessarily pulled two of her son’s teeth in an American Fork, Utah, Walmart restroom.
Prosecutors said Monday that Jeannine Degaston, 47, purchased hand sanitizer and needle-nose pliers from the store, then took them into the restroom and pulled two of her 7-year-old son’s teeth.
Police in American Fork, Utah, say the boy’s older brother heard the child screaming and got him out of the restroom on April 2.
The child was taken to a dentist, who said the teeth did not need to be removed, according to police.
The woman was charged with felony child abuse. No attorney was immediately listed for her in court records.
