Jenelle Evans’ husband, David Eason, has recently been charged with child abuse in a case involving Jenelle’s 14-year-old son, Jace. The investigation into David’s charges was opened after Jace ran away from home, prompting concerns of possible neglect. It was the third time Jace had run away in about a month’s time. The charge against David is currently a misdemeanor.
While the exact circumstances surrounding David’s charges are unclear, there is allegedly a video of an assault involving Jace that both law enforcement and child protective services have in their possession. Jenelle, although not yet charged, may also face charges in relation to the incident. It is important to note that Jace is David’s stepson.
The incident involving Jace underscores the ongoing custody issues within the family. Earlier this year, Jenelle regained custody of Jace from her mother, Barbara, who had taken care of him from a young age due to Jenelle’s previous status as an unfit parent.
This is not the first controversy involving Jenelle and David. In 2019, David made headlines when he admitted to shooting and killing the family dog after it allegedly bit their young daughter. However, he was not charged for that incident.
The latest development in the case has raised concerns about Jace’s well-being and the overall dynamics within the family. It remains to be seen how the legal proceedings will unfold and what consequences David and potentially Jenelle may face.
TMZ has reached out to representatives for Jenelle and David for comment but has not received a response yet.
In conclusion, the charges against David Eason for child abuse have shed light on the complex family dynamics involving Jenelle Evans and her son, Jace. The ongoing investigation and potential charges against Jenelle further highlight the concerning situation. The well-being of Jace remains a priority, and the legal proceedings will determine the ultimate outcome for all parties involved.
