PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. -- (WPIX) -- A Florida man is facing jail time after he allegedly forced his girlfriend's 3-year-old son to eat feces, police said.
Don Reinhard, 56, is being charged with aggravated child abuse and battery of child by throwing feces, authorities in Panama City Beach said on Friday.
