Rickesha Burns, 21, of Phoenix, Arizona
(pictured above), pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual conduct with a minor
and child abuse after a vibrator she allegedly shoved into her 2-year-old
son’s rectum had to be surgically removed, reports PhoenixNewTimes.com.
Burns called the police on March 24,
2013 and said that her toddler was bleeding from his rectum and she believed
that a Hispanic boy in the park “did something” to him while she was “looking
at a text message for about 10 seconds,” according to a probable cause document
submitted in court and obtained by the New Times.

details below:
Doctors discovered
that he has numerous bruises around his anus, a “hanger type” bruise on his
hip, and yet another bruise on his neck.
Doctors also found an
object lodged in his rectum, which appears to be “a vibrator or some other sex
toy.”
Police interviewed
Burns, who still claimed that a teenage boy at a park did it, even though she
“believes it is her vibrator,” and police found the boy’s blood on her shirt,
according to court documents.
Phoenix Police
Officer James Holmes says there was zero evidence that the boy was assaulted at
the park.
It appeared as if the injuries
around the toddler’s anus were from his mother using the hanger to try to
remove the vibrator, but he eventually had to undergo surgery.
Burns was arrested and held
without bond last month and pleaded not guilty to sexual conduct with a minor
and child abuse charges on April 10.
According to the Phoenix New Times, Burns was investigated for child abuse in 2011 but no
criminal charges were filed. She also told police that she “worked hard to get
her son back and would not do anything like this to hurt her son.”
Burns told authorities that she was alone with her son that day because his father
was out of town.
Her next court appearance is
scheduled for May 23.
