Ozark, AL (WSFA) -
On November 19th, 35-year-old Jacqueline Wilson of Ozark, and a juvenile were arrested on charges of child abuse.
The crime was discovered when a phone SD card was found laying on the ground and turned over to law enforcement. The card contained video of a teenager physically abusing a child who appeared to be between two and three years old.
The video depicted the teenager shoving the child, physically picking up and throwing down the child, striking the child several times with a belt and chocking the child.
While the abuse was occurring, Wilson was seen in the video observing the incident. She then appears to walk away without stopping the abuse.
Initially, the identity of the people in the video was not known, but after an investigation by the Dale County Sheriff's Office and the Dale County Department of Human Resources, all parties were identified and proper action taken.
Wilson was taken to the Dale County Jail and held, pending her appearance before a judge on November 20th.
