Authorities in Oregon have apprehended a couple after uncovering horrific details of abuse against their children, including the use of a taser as a method of discipline. On September 17, 2023, an investigation was launched by the Springfield Police Department and the Department of Human Services, following reports of child abuse involving a 7-year-old boy with numerous injuries. The parents, identified as Brandon Rogers, 44, and Heather Black, 36, were subsequently charged with various offenses related to the abuse in October.

Uncovering the Abuse

The investigation began after authorities received complaints about the 7-year-old boy showing signs of severe abuse. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the child's parents had subjected him to physical abuse, including the use of a taser on two separate occasions as a form of discipline. In light of these disturbing revelations, Rogers and Black were arrested on October 4, 2023, and charged with Assault III, Unlawful Use of a Stun Gun, and Criminal Mistreatment.

Arrests and Ongoing Investigation

On October 29, 2023, law enforcement officials apprehended Rogers and Black again, this time for additional incidents of abuse that had come to light after their initial arrest.

Fortunately, the 7-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter of Rogers and Black are now safe and have been placed with other family members to ensure their well-being. The authorities have taken appropriate measures to ensure the children are protected from further harm.
