Published June 11, 2008 10:48 pm - Haskell man charged with failing to seek medical attention for 2-year-old By Donna Hales Phoenix Staff Writer
A 66-year-old Haskell man is charged with child abuse by injury after a 2-year-old girl he was guardian of was raped and was developing a genital deformity. Alfonso B. Smith of Haskell failed to seek any medical attention for the toddler, who had contracted a sexually transmitted disease from being raped and her genitalia seriously bruised, the charges state. An affidavit filed in Muskogee County District Court states the child victim contracted hepatitis, vaginal warts and vaginal trauma while in Smith’s care. He did not seek medical treatment for the toddler’s symptoms during an approximate seven-week period, according to Muskogee Police Investigator Shannon Crary. The affidavit states Smith denied the child’s biological father visitation with the child. Smith is jailed in the Muskogee County/City Detention Facility in lieu of $50,000 bond. A physician of the Muskogee Women’s Clinic has been subpoenaed to appear before the court at 10 a.m. today with all information or medical files regarding the toddler. He is set to testify and present medical records to the Department of Human Services, along with cooperating with DHS, the subpoena states. If convicted, Smith could serve up to life in prison and be fined up to $5,000, according to court documents.
