Prosecutors say they will ask for the maximum sentence allowed by law for a New York City man who admitted throwing his son naked in the oven as punishment.
Note that when this phrase is used (here, it is not reported as a quote) it often signifies a personal belief that the subject deserves a longer sentence.
James Moss of Staten Island is scheduled to be sentenced Friday.
The Staten Island district attorney's office says Moss punished his 9-year-old son Christopher last year because he thought he stole $20 from his wallet.
Prosecutors say he beat him with a spatula, put his hands over two hot oven burners and then shoved him into an oven for several minutes.
"I'm going to burn you alive," Moss reportedly yelled, according to court papers.
Please note that when a subject articulates a threat, it is often an indication that they are capable of doing so: the words entered the mind, and came out via the tongue: ie, the speech process. Verbalized specific threats should always be taken seriously. These are those that are not presented as humor.
He did not turn on the oven. The boy's hands were burned when his father held them over the burners.
Moss has pleaded guilty to all seven counts of the indictment against him, including two counts of second-degree assault.
Moss' lawyer tells the Staten Island Advance the boy and his mother are expected to speak on his client's behalf.
Please note that this should suggest investigation into domestic violence against the boy's mother.
Please note that abused children often defend the abusive parent in a strong bond that is unhealthy and often "nervous".
