Jonathan Burks, 20, admitted to squeezing and pulling a 3-year-old boy’s penis and testicles after the boy “refused to answer his questions correctly,” according to an arrest citation.
In the interview, according to the citation, Burks told police he pulled the boy’s penis and testicles five times. The boy had swelling, bruising and “abnormal deformities” to his private area, authorities reported.
Burks also reportedly admitted to striking the child with a belt that caused bruising on both of the child’s buttocks and his right thigh.
