Sentenced: Andrew Flickinger Picked Crying 1MO Up By Neck, Pinched Their Nostrils Shut & Stuck His Finger In Their Mouth

A Wichita Falls man who was placed on probation for abusing his crying infant son will now spend two years in prison.

78th District Judge Meredith Kennedy granted a motion to revoke Andrew Flickinger’s probation for injury to a child on Thursday, Feb. 15.

When Flickinger made his plea deal in January 2023 for five years probation, a second county of injury to a child was dropped.

Prosecutors said Flickinger violated multiple terms of his probation, including failing to report for several months, allowing his probation officer to visit his home, obtaining a job, and completing community service, among others.

Police said in May 2022, Flickinger’s abuse of the child was recorded on a surveillance camera. In the video, Flickinger cursed at the baby, pinched his nostrils shut, picked him up by the neck, and stuck his finger in the baby’s mouth to stop him from crying. Police also viewed several photographs taken by the victim’s mother of bruising and marks on the baby.

Authorities said when the baby began crying, Flickinger put his left hand around the back of the baby’s neck, lifted the baby out with a jerk, and pulled him toward his face.

When the baby began crying louder, Flickinger pulled the baby closer to his face and could be heard saying, “Shut the expletive up.”

Police said Flickinger also put his forefinger into his baby’s mouth up to his knuckle, causing the baby’s head to jolt forward and muffle the crying.

Mom never allow this man to see the child again.... I would rather she go on public assistance than get child support from this man which might make him seek visitation.

He is already out of prison and is probably already terrorizing another child.
