SAVANNAH, GA – Two women are charged with child abuse after a four-year-old boy was allegedly found bound in a crab trap in a Georgia home.
According to officials, a father reportedly arrived to visit his 4-year-old son and was greeted by the child’s mother, Jill Love at her sister, Amy Sanders’ home. At first, Love refused to allow the father to visit, but the father was able to get past Love.
He found the 4-year-old bound using a crab trap and line as well as industrial tape placed over his mouth. The father removed the child from the home and called the police.
The child had minor injuries and was in good physical condition, according to police.
Sanders is charged with felony cruelty to children in the first degree and was served her warrant at the Chatham County Detention Center where she was serving time on an unrelated charge.

She also has ties to the Savannah area and frequents the residence on the 200 block of Waycross Road. She is also charged with felony cruelty to children in the first degree.
