A Colorado mother is facing serious charges after handing her 4-year-old son over to a man who subjected the boy to boot camp-style punishments that ultimately led to his death. Destini Rose Lipsky, 23, has been charged with child abuse resulting in death following a thorough investigation by Aurora police into the death of her young son.
According to Law & Crime, Lipsky had handed her son over to Alexander Martinez-Armstrong, 24, a man she considered as close as a “brother.” She reportedly gave him “full permission” to punish the child, including belt whippings, spankings, and push-ups. The fact that a mother willingly allowed such treatment of her own child has left many people deeply disturbed.
