Dad gets 25 years for whipping 15-year-old son, forcing him to drink water spiked with bleach and soap (Denver, Colorado)

Dad JOHN ALLEN is one sicko pup. He not only beat his 15-year-old son with an extension cord--he forced him to drink water spiked with bleach and soap? Was there a mother in this household when this was going on? Who knows. Not a word.

INVISIBLE MOTHER ALERT.

John Allen was sentenced today to serve 25 years in prison for whipping his then-15-year-old son with an extension cord and forcing him to drink water spiked with bleach and soap.

A Denver jury convicted Allen, 36, of child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury in August.

The abuse happened multiple times and progressively became worse during December 2008.

According to a press release, Denver Deputy District Attorney Simone Montoya asked the court to give Allen significant prison time because of the severity of the abuse, and the scars that resulted.

The abused son, now 17, testified during the sentencing hearing and said he still has nightmares about the abuse, according to a press release.

Allen is the defendant in a separate pending child-abuse case involving other victims who were 8 and 7 years old at the time of the alleged incident.
