The song in 8-year-old Isaiah Jones' heart is a joyful one.
"Bless the lord. I'm singing."
The young boy is full of love and energy.
Seven years have passed since police say Isaiah's father, Walter Speller, beat him so badly that Isaiah was left completely blind, partially paralyzed, and brain damaged.
It's a day Isaiah's mother, Khalisha Jones, will never forget.
"All I could do is kneel down on my knees and cry. I said he did this to my son," Jones said.
Walter Speller served two years in prison for nearly killing his own son. :furious:
After he was released he had another son by another woman. Police say two years ago Speller beat that son and his sister so severely he paralyzed them as well.
......
Walter Speller will be sentenced Friday, February 5 for his most recent violent beatings.
Khalisha Jones hopes this time the punishment fits the crime.
"With him doing this again, it just shows that he didn't learn his lesson the first time."
............
Walter Speller plead guilty to two counts of Aggravated Malicious Wounding last September.
He faces between 12 and 21 years in prison under the terms of his plea agreement. :furious:
He will be sentenced in Norfolk Circuit Court.
