3-Y-O girl, whose parents left her with 40 broken bones in one of America's 'worst ever' child abuse cases is adopted by a new family

Baby Faith adopted after horrific child abuse by parents

  • Faith Mason, known as Baby Faith, was horrifically abused in Southeast Texas by her biological parents in 2013
  • The one-month-old was taken to a Texas hospital by her mom Christine Johnson with at least 40 broken bones and fractures
  • Faith, now aged three, is still recovering but was officially adopted on March 10
  • She has been living with her new family for the past six months, authorities say
  • Johnson was jailed for 65 years in 2015, while Faith's father Darrell Mason was handed a 25-year sentence in 2016 for failing to stop the abuse

A little girl whose biological parents were jailed for horrifically abusing her as a baby has now been adopted by a new family. 

Faith Mason was dubbed Baby Faith back in 2013 when she was found in Southeast Texas with injuries so severe authorities had compared it to falling from a two-storey building. 

Now three years on, Faith is still recovering but has a permanent home after being official adopted by her new family on March 10.

The little girl has been living with her adoptive parents and three teenage siblings for the past six months, according to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.

Faith is still recovering from her horrific abuse injuries, but authorities say she has already improved much more than anticipated.

During a court hearing last year, prosecutors said Faith was still being fed through a feeding tube and her left arm had still not healed properly in the three years since the abuse was uncovered.

Faith was taken to a hospital in Southwest Texas back in 2013 by her mother Christine Johnson.

An emergency room nurse who was on duty when Faith was brought in called the abuse the worst case she had ever seen, the Port Arthur News reported.  

Doctors found she had suffered at least 40 broken bones and fractures, including two broken arms, two broken legs, a broken neck and dislocated shoulder.

They said many of the one-month-old's fractures were about three weeks old at the time she was examined.  

Faith was officially adopted on March 10 and has been living with her new parents and three teenage siblings for the past six months. Their identity and location is not being made public

The little girl had an IV drip placed in her neck as doctors tried to stabilize her. 

Her injuries were so extensive, a team of doctors from a children's hospital in Houston had to fly down to help treat her.   

Her biological parents, Christine Johnson and Darrell Mason, were both charged with child abuse. 

Johnson was found guilty in 2015 and sentenced to 65 years in prison.

During her trial, the jury heard that Johnson had broken the baby's neck and left her with brain damage when on one occasion she yanked her from her cot. 

Faith's father Darrell Mason reached a plea deal and was sentenced to 25 years in 2016 for failing to stop the abuse. 

Her new adoptive family requested that their name or location be made public.

WTH!  A one month old baby can't do anything wrong to warrant that kind of abuse!  A one month old is entirely dependent on the parents to take care of them, protect them and nurture them.  They both should have been jailed for life!  So glad that she was placed in a loving home.
