GARDNER -- About a week before a 2-year-old Gardner girl died from injuries sustained in a beating the Department of Social Services was called to her home to investigate allegations that the child was being abused, an agency spokeswoman said.
Caseworkers devised a plan to have the girl live with her mother and grandmother and never be put in the care of the mother's boyfriend, who was on probation for indecent assault and battery. DSS said it was satisfied the plan would keep the child safe.
But yesterday, the mother, Michele Lepkowski, 32, was charged in Gardner District Court with beating the child, and the boyfriend, Luke Malizia, 21, who was at the home during the alleged assault, was charged with doing nothing to stop her.
Doctors who examined the girl, Raelynn Mascal, said she had died after suffering severe trauma to the head, face, and torso, according to court documents. Judge Patrick A. Fox said in court papers that Lepkowksi's beating "result[ed] in death of a 2-year-old child."
