A North Carolina couple have been arrested after their two-year-old son was hospitalized with a skull fracture and doctors determined he was so malnourished that he ate his own feces. Jade Newman, 21, and Delane Bostic, 25, are each facing one count of intentional child abuse causing serious bodily injury. Authorities say the parents brought their son to a hospital in Fayetteville last week and examinations revealed that the toddler was severely malnourished, weighing just 18 pounds. Neighbors spoke to local news station ABC11 and described frequently seeing two children running around unattended outside Bostic's home in northwest Fayetteville.
