Three Arrested After Child Watches Animal Sacrifices
|
PATERSON, N.J. (AP) -- Three people are accused of cutting a child and making her watch animal sacrifices as part of a religious ritual in northern New Jersey.
The suspects, including the girl's mother, are charged with endangering the welfare of a child.
Authorities say the ritual was performed inside a home in Paterson in May.
A search of the home uncovered a shrine, religious statues, bones, machetes, dolls and sticks with numbers and names on them.
Passaic County prosecutors have not said what religious ritual was observed.
