Facebook photo of duct-taped kids prompts couples arrest
By Douglas Stanglin, USA TODAY
December 30, 2011

A northern Arizona couple have been arrested on suspicion of child abuse after allegedly posting pictures on Facebook of their children bound with duct tape, KPNX reports.

The Coconino County Sheriff's Office says the 2-year-old and 10-month-old children were bound around their wrists and ankles and had their mouths closed with tape.  
 
The sheriff's office says one child was hung upside down on an exercise machine, the Phoenix TV station reports.


KSAZ TV reports that Frankie and Kayla Almuina were arrested at their home in Williams, Ariz., after an anonymous tipster saw the photos on the mother's Facebook page and called the Arizona Child Abuse Hotline.

"Clearly you can't tape another person's hands and mouth shut. Especially small children. It is clearly child abuse and they were charged appropriately."

The children were placed in the custody of relatives while the investigation continues, KSAZ reports.

This is the second case posted in our forum about a child or children with their faces duct taped and wrists & ankles bound and posted on FB.   The first case was in Chicago and the link is:

Parents Arrested After Kids Bound, Photos Posted

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - Two northern Arizona parents have been arrested after photos of their children allegedly being abused were posted on Facebook.

Wednesday night, a Facebook viewer anonymously called the AZ Child Abuse Hotline.

The caller reported seeing two young children, ages 2 years and 10 months, in Facebook photos. The children had been bound with duct tape around their wrists and ankles.

Their mouths were taped shut, and one of the children was hung upside down by some exercise equipment, according to the Coconino County Sheriff's Office.

"I am shocked and horrified and I will tell you that in 30 years in law enforcement in Arizona this is one of the most horrendous things I have ever seen," says Commander Rex Gilliland from CCSO.

Deputies responded to the Williams, Ariz. home. Frankie and Kayla Almuina were arrested and charged with two counts of child abuse each.
 ::snipping2::
The children are being taken care of by family members while the investigation continues.

Authorities are not releasing the photos.

If this sounds familiar, it is. A similar incident happened last week in Chicago.

KSAZ TV reports that Frankie and Kayla Almuina were arrested at their home in Williams, Ariz., after an anonymous tipster saw the photos on the mother's Facebook page and called the Arizona Child Abuse Hotline.

"They did indicate that they were simply joking, however it is apparent through the photographs that this was not a joke. The photos depicted the children's faces in sheer terror," Commander Rex Gilliland of the sheriff's office tells KSZA. "Clearly you can't tape another person's hands and mouth shut. Especially small children. It is clearly child abuse and they were charged appropriately."
