Ala. man sentenced for abusing girlfriend’s kids, burning them with blowtorch

DALE COUNTY, Ala. (TCN) -- A 54-year-old man will spend the rest of his life behind bars for abusing his girlfriend’s three young children, including burning them with a blowtorch.

WDHN-TV reports a Dale County judge sentenced Howard Anderson to three life terms in prison for aggravated child abuse and 60 years for chemical endangerment of a child following his conviction last month.

The victims are all under age 12 and reportedly testified at Anderson’s trial about how they saw him as a father figure and even referred to him as "dad." Anderson reportedly regularly choked, beat, and attempted to drown them. One such abuse involved using a blowtorch on them.
Sheriff Mason Bynum added, "These young children have been waiting for this day for a long time. They have lived in hell at the hands of Ashleigh Ableman and Howard Anderson. Not only did he subject them to physical abuse but subjected them to having to testify and look at him again in a courtroom. Now he will experience what I consider hell on earth in the Alabama Department of Corrections for the rest of his life."


At least there is justice against him for these poor babies!! The mother deserved more time! They can move on now and hopefully heal! My heart is with these children as they navigate the rest of their lives.
