Pleasantville couple charged with abusing their child

Fairfield County sheriff's deputies say the parents of a 4-year-old girl who was confined at night in a bed wrapped with steel mesh fencing are each being held on 500-thousand dollars bond. 34-year-old Russell Terry and 32-year-old Jamie Curnell were were arrested after deputies discovered the bed while responding to a domestic violence call Tuesday at their Pleasantville home. The parents told deputies they confined the girl at night to keep her from getting up. The child and an 8-month-old baby are with protective services.
