Jennifer Louise Barnes, 41, made her plea to two counts of child abuse in Maricopa County court Tuesday morning. As part of a plea deal, counts three through 13 will be dismissed.
According to court documents, the child was abused with a lighter, toothbrush and curling iron. The boy told investigators that Barnes allegedly forced dog feces into his mouth and then taped it shut using duct tape.
