A father appeared in court on Monday after he was accused of abusing his daughter in Miami-Dade County after she refused to go to church on Sunday. While at home near Miami Gardens, Renel Sanon walked into his daughter’s bedroom, pulled her bed covers off, punched her in the chest, and used an electrical cord to hit her, according to deputies. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue personnel responded to treat the victim, who refused to provide a statement when Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office deputies found her in the backyard and took pictures of her injuries, according to the deputies’ arrest report. Sanon faced a charge of child abuse with no great bodily harm, records show. A bond court judge ordered him to stay away from his daughter and set his bond at $2,500.
