WE CLARIFY A STORY WHICH IDENTIFIED A BABY AS ABUSED

A clarification to a story we aired yesterday concerning a case about a 3-week old baby. The man who was arrested, Justin Morrow, 21, of the 61500 block of Palm Vista in Joshua Tree, pleaded guilty Wednesday morning to spouse abuse, not child abuse. Despite the original call being for a baby not breathing, Morrow was not accused of hurting the baby, but rather, of fighting with the baby’s mother on December 18. Justin Morrow pleaded guilty Wednesday morning in Joshua Tree Superior Court to inflicting corporal injuries on a spouse or cohabitant. He was sentenced to six months in county jail, and is eligible for a weekend or work release program, and must attend a year-long domestic batterer’s program. Z107.7 News regrets the error.
