Overview

  • Angelina Williams pleaded guilty in May to kidnapping, obstruction of justice, possession of criminal tools and four counts of child endangerment.
  • Records show she restrained her 6-year-old son with handcuffs and ropes as punishment for refusing to pick up dog waste before tying him to a chair.
  • The pit bull clamped onto the boy’s throat and neck at the homeowner’s residence, inflicting severe lacerations before being pulled off.
  • Homeowner Robert Michalski Jr. later fled with the pit bull to prevent its seizure and was convicted for obstruction alongside Taylor Marvin-Brown for their roles in the attack.
  • After nearly a year in county jail, Williams will enter the Ohio State Reformatory for Women with credit for 361 days already served.
