Monday, Jessica Beagley of Alaska was given a suspended 180-day sentence, three years probation and ordered to continue in counseling and Russia is not completely happy about it. The Kremlin children's rights ombudsman, Pavel Astahkov, commented that while Russia is not completely satisfied with the verdict they will respect it. Astahkov also mentioned that he is happy that the child's humiliation was taken seriously and that Beagley was held accountable for her actions.
Last week we learned that Beagley, also known as 'Hot Sauce Mom', was convicted of one count of misdemeanor child abuse. Her brand of punishment - pouring hot sauce down her Russian, adopted, seven-year-old's throat was brought to light on a November 2010, segment of the Dr. Phil show called, "Mommy Confessions." Beagley stated that she sought help from Dr. Phil as she didn't know how to help her child with his behaviors.
Beagley, and her husband have six children, four biological and the twin sons they adopted from Russia two years ago. None of the children were removed from the home during the investigation.
