Two police officers in the city of Charlotte, North Carolina have been arrested for beating their 3-month-old baby into a serious vegetative condition.
Vegetative state — a medical term used to describe a disorder of consciousness in which patients with severe brain damage are in a state of partial arousal rather than true awareness.
Doctors say they are not expecting the baby to survive but if even he does, he is likely to be blind from severe bleeding, which the doctor who saw him called ‘horrific.’
The officers are a couple. The man was identified as Robert Jeffrey Taylor, who worked for the York Police Department as a corporal. The mother was indentified as Audrey Schurig, also a police officer, with the Chester Police Department’s Patrol Team as a sergeant.
It is reported that Taylor committed the actual crime against the infant but Audrey was arrested because she neglected the infant and did nothing to stop the abuse, although she knew what Taylor was doing to the baby. She has been charged with ‘unlawful neglect of a child or helpless person’ and has been granted a bond of $2,000. She has since resigned from her post and if convicted, can face up to 10 years in prison.
For Taylor, he is still in custody and his bond is set at $100,000. He resigned from his position a few days before his arrest. He has been charged with ‘child abuse and neglect’ and is facing up to 30 years if convicted. If the baby dies, he may be charged with ‘homicide by child abuse’ or murder.
According to the 16th Circuit Solicitor, Kevin Brackett: Jaxon Jennings Taylor, the 3-month-old baby, was abused so brutally on February 15th that he is unable to move or eat without a feeding tube. Despite being in a vegetative state, he is said to be in some pain and exhibits periodic cries.
Describing the gravity of the offense, Brackett said, “We don’t know if this child will survive much longer,” adding that, “upon arriving at the hospital, the infant was foaming at the mouth, had bruising around his neck consistent with being held by the throat, and was suffering from a lack of oxygen.”
Jaxon is said to have sustained brain damage as well as retinal hemorrhaging, or bleeding from his eyes, and doctors say it is so severe that it could only have been caused by violent shaking or a fall from a building of at least 20 feet.
Law experts say that even if Taylor was to be released on bond, he will be ordered to have no contact with any children under 12 and must wear a GPS monitor.
Taylor’s lawyer tried to fight the ‘no contact with children’ order by saying, “he was a protector of the community. A few weeks ago, could have walked into this court carrying a gun, and nobody would have thought anything of it.”
Since the incident was made public, local residents have expressed worry on the basis that the individuals involved in the crime are people who are supposed to be protecting lives and properties. They say if they are abusing their own baby this way, what will they do others? Their trial is still pending and we will be following for updates. Expect us!

We need to revise laws regarding ALL forms of Child Abuse. They need to be harsher and ? And at ed sentencing. None of this Plea bargaining shit. Crime=mandatory charges=mandatory sentence guidelines=mandatory punishment fitting degree of crime. No appeals if forensics beyond reproach and definitive to party’s guilt and/or collusion in committing crime. Children should be given highest consideration of JUSTICE FITTING CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN(birth to 21yrs.old)
Time to Revise and Implement New Laws regarding Heinous Crimes Against Children. Time for petition drives to get new laws and mandatory sentencing on the ballots to protect kids and keep future harm to children by offenders with child abuse/neglect from happening again, by the same repeat offenders and first time offenders, alike.
