A New Hampshire woman has been sentenced to nine to 30 years after pleading guilty in the torture of her 18-year-old son.
Christine Gelineau, a 53-year-old from Concord, reached an agreement with prosecutors Thursday, pleading guilty to first-degree assault and witness tampering, CBS Connecticut reported.
The teen, who is now 19, has two other alleged abusers he has yet to face. In court, he spoke to his now "ex-mother."
"Dear ex-Mother,” he began, reading from a statement as his abuser sat sobbing nearby in an orange prison jumpsuit, the Concord Monitor reported. “What you did to me is unforgivable. You beat me, starved me, almost chopped my penis off, threw my clothes away, wouldn’t let me bathe. You almost killed me by having me take three [antidepressants] and two muscle-relaxers."
He continued:
“Now that I know you’re a complete criminal and only wanted me dead so you could go back to your old life....You won’t be able to attend my graduation or see me go on to college, so I wish you goodbye. I hope you realize you have lost everything you had.”
