MARQUETTE, MI-- A West Branch Township man accused of torturing a three-month-old baby has been bound over to circuit court.
Nicholas Racine, 37, is charged with torture and first-degree child abuse.
A doctor says the infant had cracked ribs, head trauma, bruised eyes, and a possible bite mark on his arm when Racine was arrested in June. She says the injuries indicate the abuse happened on at least three separate occasions.
The baby is recovering with his mother.
Circuit court arraignment for Racine is set for July 24.
