In Tuscaloosa, a 15 year old child was attacked by a 33 year old woman. This 15 year old child, Brittany Duncan is my daughter and was injured during this attack. Brittany received a broken nose and a back injury as a result of this blatant attack. The extent of the back injury is not yet known.
Brandi Michelle Smith (33) was Convicted of Assault III for attacking my daughter, Brittany Ann Duncan (15), in Municipal Court of Tuscaloosa, Case MC11-0003046.
In the State of Alabama, if a child is attacked by a stranger it is not considered child abuse. It holds the same value of one adult assaulting another: Assault III.
In ALL four neighboring States, Their children are protected from child abuse inflicted by any person.
