A Rice Twp. couple was arrested Thursday on charges alleging they starved a 6-year-old boy so severely that he weighed only 20 pounds when he appeared at Greater Nanticoke Area Elementary Center one day last year.
Zachary Michael Vincent, 30, and his wife, Natalie M. Shaffer, 26, both of 155 Pine View Dr., were jailed without bail on felony assault charges following an arraignment by Magisterial District Judge Donald L. Whittaker.
According to the complaints filed by Luzerne County detectives, police began investigating the case in January 2020 after the starving child â who is Shafferâs son and Vincentâs stepson â showed up at the Nanticoke school.
