NORRISTOWN — Described by authorities as a "horrific" case of alleged
child abuse and neglect, an Abington woman and her ex-boyfriend face
various charges in connection with the "violent trauma" suffered by an
infant boy in their care.

Colleen Melissa Miller, 31, allegedly
left the child, for whom she was caring, alone with her former
boyfriend, John Matthew O'Neill, even though she had a protection order
against O'Neill, and then didn't seek immediate medical care for the
child when she returned home from a night of drinking and discovered the
child suffered serious injuries, allegedly at the hands of O'Neill.

"At
no time did she call the police or emergency medical personnel for help
with (the child's) condition, nor did she make any attempt to take (the
child) to the hospital," Abington Detective Michael Begley alleged in a
criminal complaint.

Miller waived her arraignment in Montgomery
County Court this week and pleaded not guilty to charges of endangering
the welfare of a child and recklessly endangering another person in
connection with the August incident.

Miller remains free on $50,000 bail while awaiting trial on the charges.

O'Neill,
33, of Abington, is awaiting a Nov. 2 arraignment on charges of
involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, sexual assault, aggravated
indecent assault of a child, indecent assault of a child, reckless
endangerment, child endangerment and simple and aggravated assault in
connection with his alleged contact with the 7-month-old child.

O'Neill,
who remains in the county jail in lieu of $1 million bail, allegedly
gave conflicting statements to detectives about the cause of injuries to
the child, including claiming a pet cat caused the injuries or that the
child fell against a bathtub fixture during bathing, according to the
arrest affidavit.

"O'Neill admits being the sole caretaker of
(the child) prior to and during the time where (the child) received his
injuries," Begley alleged in the criminal complaint.

The case is
being prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Samantha Cauffman, who
leads the district attorney's sex crimes prosecution division.

The
investigation determined Miller, at about 10 p.m. Aug. 12, allowed
O'Neill, her ex-boyfriend, to come to her home, even though she had a
valid protection from abuse order that prohibited O'Neill from being at
her residence, and asked him to stay with the child that was in her care
while she went out with her new boyfriend, court papers indicate.

Miller
allegedly returned home at 3 a.m. Aug. 13. After a brief discussion
during which O'Neill allegedly stated the child was "fine," Miller asked
O'Neill to leave the residence. As O'Neill left he allegedly stated to
Miller, "There's blood in the trash can, it's from me," according to the
arrest affidavit.

When Miller checked on the child she noticed
blood on the bedding. "She also found blood throughout other areas of
the house. Miller found blood splatter, bloody diapers, towels, sheets
and baby wipes," Begley alleged, adding Miller noticed something unusual
about the child's anal area while removing the child's diaper.

At
about 4:40 a.m. Miller allegedly sent a text message to a relative
stating, "You need to come, what I have to show you is not good,"
according to the arrest affidavit. However, even after Miller couldn't
reach her relative, Miller did not call for medical assistance for the
child, authorities alleged.

Miller's relative, retrieving the
message about six hours later, rushed to her home at 10:45 a.m. and
found the child "unresponsive but breathing," and noticed the child's
anal injuries and bruising to both sides of his head at his temples and
under his jaw, according to the criminal complaint. Miller's relative
rushed the child to Abington Memorial Hospital.

Due to the
child's critical condition, the little boy was transported to The
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where doctors diagnosed the injuries
to the child's anus as "violent trauma," including perforation of the
intestines, according to the criminal complaint.

The child
underwent emergency surgery for what doctors described as "horrific
injuries to the anus area," which were life-threatening, according to
court documents.

When authorities took O'Neill into custody, they
discovered what appeared to be a blood "splatter mark" on the top of
his right shoe, according to the arrest affidavit.
