A 37 year old Boaz woman is currently being held in the Etowah County Jail, on a cash bond of $150,000 after being arrested and charged with three counts of Aggravated Child Abuse.

Records indicate that abuse to the children happened on numerous occasions.

On September 22nd Brandy Greeson Firestone was accused of beating a female child with a wooden spatula, leaving bruises on the child’s behind; she’s accused of verbally abusing the child by calling her crude names as well.

On that same day, Firestone, according to records, punched a male child in the face several times and called him names, and according to the charging documents, she went so far as to  tell the child “that if he died, nobody would miss him,’’

Records did not state the exact relationship between Firestone and the victims, saying only that she was either a parent, step-parent, adoptive parent or legal guardian.   

A judge ordered that if she is released from jail – she be prohibited from having any contact with the victims or any child under the age of 18.
