SALISBURY, Md. (AP) — A Maryland man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for physically abusing a child.
The Daily Times of Salisbury reported Tuesday that the man who was sentenced was Timothy Charles White Sr.
Police said that White, 35, physically abused a child under the age of 1. He caused bruises to the baby's face, head and buttocks and swelling to the head. The injuries were not permanent.
