ENTERPRISE, Ala. (WDNews) – A judge has denied bond for a 22-year-old Enterprise man accused of severely abusing his 4-month-old daughter, according to the Coffee County District Attorney’s Office.
Hunter Dewayne Halsey was arrested on Dec. 6 after Enterprise Police reported that his infant daughter was taken to the hospital with injuries consistent with “shaken baby syndrome.”
According to District Attorney James Tarbox, the child suffered a broken leg, multiple broken ribs, and internal head trauma. The head trauma could potentially result in blindness in her left eye. The baby remains hospitalized in Birmingham.
Halsey appeared before Judge Joshua Wilson on Friday during an Aniah’s Law hearing, where he requested bond. The judge denied his plea, filing the decision in an order on Sunday.
Halsey will remain in custody as the case moves forward.
