SANILAC COUNTY, MI (WNEM) -
A YouTube video that shows parents feeding their child is at the center of an investigation. The kid can be seen screaming as his mother puts spoonfuls of food in his mouth.
A detective with the Sanilac County Sheriff's Department said the boy was 2 years old at the time the video was shot. He said a relative shot the video.
The Sanilac County prosecutor will review the report from the Sheriff's Department. He has not said anything about formal charges.
"When I got a chance to witness the video, I was appalled," said CAN Council Child Abuse and Prevention Director Vera Harrison.
Still, the video is the topic of much debate. By late Friday evening it had already garnered nearly 63,000 views on YouTube.
