MICHIGAN — An 11-year-old girl was in tears as she testified in court how her father beat her with frozen bacon, while he quoted the Bible to justify the attack.<\/p>\n
The girl claimed she was attacked by Jonathan Powell, aged 45, for over 10 minutes during which he said: ‘It’s ok to do that, it’s from the Bible. If you spare the rod, you spoil the child.’<\/p>\n
He has been charged with one count of third-degree child abuse after he was accused of hitting his daughter multiple times at his Michigan home.<\/p>\n
While the daughter was giving evidence, she was shown pictures showing marking on her face taken two days after the attack on January 8th.<\/p>\n
