Matthew Ruzbasan, 34, was arrested in Litchfield, Conn. after being caught on an in-house camera system allegedly abusing a child. He was charged with intentional cruelty to persons, risk of injury to a child, and first-degree reckless endangerment. The incident occurred on Sept. 19 when police were called to a home on Fern Avenue. The complainant had recorded the abuse on camera, showing Ruzbasan acting violently towards the infant. The child was taken to a hospital for treatment and then transferred for further care due to injuries sustained during the incident. The Connecticut Department of Children and Families was also notified of the situation. Ruzbasan was held on a $100,000 bond and appeared in Torrington Superior Court on Sept. 20. This case raises concerns about child abuse and the importance of monitoring systems to protect vulnerable individuals. It serves as a reminder of the need for vigilance and intervention when signs of abuse are detected. Authorities are urging anyone who suspects child abuse to report it immediately to prevent further harm to innocent victims.
