Police say an Ohio man who stuck his 3-year-old son in a clothes dryer as punishment and then turned it on is facing child endangerment charges.
The Zanesville Times Recorder reports that 40-year-old Jamial Bayly is scheduled for a video arraignment Thursday in Cambridge Municipal Court.
Guernsey County Sheriff Michael McCauley says deputies went to the Cambridge home Sunday after getting a tip from family members.
The sheriff says the father acknowledged putting the boy in the dryer earlier in the day. Deputies didn’t see any visible injuries on him. McCauley says he doesn’t know how long the boy had been in the dryer.
The sheriff says the boy was released to his mother, who wasn’t home when deputies arrived.
Accordting to the Times Recorder, Bayly was released after posting bond on the misdemeanor charge and subsequently was arrested on charges of felony domestic violence.
He is being detained at Guernsey County Jail and is set to appear by video arraignment at 1 p.m. Friday in Cambridge Municipal Court. Bayly was convicted in 1999 of domestic violence for assaulting a 5-year-old family member, the Times Recorder reports.

Another case where a child abuser was returned to his kids, and was caught abusing them again! What kind of hell did those kids go through before this piece of filth was caught?
This guy needs to be removed from his kids FOREVER, and sterilized so he can't make any other kids!
When will the legal system realize that these slaps on the wrist don't work?
