Roy Chumley Jr. pleaded guilty Sept. 23 to a charge of reckless con duct in the shooting of his 16-year- old sister, Angela, during an argu ment, according to court records. She recovered after an 11-day hospi tal stay. The boy was sentenced Monday by District Judge Enrique Pena. Pena appointed the state Depart ment of Human Services as tempo rary conservator. Under con servatorship, Roy will live at home and the department is to monitor his progress and counsel the family. County Attorney Joe Lucas crit icized Human Services during the hearing for not doing something earlier to prevent the shooting. According to testimony, child wel fare workers were told at least twice about two years ago that the boy had no parental supervision. Human Services caseworkers Rosa Masilang and Leslie Thompson testified they checked reports in De cember 1985 and May 1986 that the child often was left alone and had to feed himself. They said they checked with the boy’s mother, Linda Chumley, who denied the al legations. The cases were closed. Ernest Gonzales, a Human Serv ices supervisor, testified that the de partment is so understaffed that it can handle only the most serious cases. Lucas said the department “ought to be in the prevention business.” “It seems like a little prevention would help all of us,” Lucas said. He added that he thought the sen tence was fair. “He has a learning disability,” Lu cas said, “but everyone who has come in contact with him agrees that he is a good kid.” Mrs. Chumley was not home at the time of the shooting. Angela Chumley testified she holds no ill will toward her brother. Couple gets prison term for child abuse HOUSTON (AP) — The mother and stepfather of a 2-year-old boy who police said died after being beaten and force-fed pizza were sen tenced to prison terms after pleading guilty to injuring the child. Thomas Lynn Warren, 43, was sentenced to 37 years in prison, while his wife, Jacqueline Annette Warren, was given a 20-year term af ter they entered the guilty pleas as part of a plea-bargain agreement. The two were sentenced Monday by State District Judge John Hughes. Both could have been sent to prison for life. “I’m sorry for what happened,” Warren said before his sentencing, “I live my life now to serve God.” Jesse Warren, who had been re turned to his mother after being taken away by child welfare authori ties, died of head injuries May 8. He was hospitalized after his step father shoved pizza in his mouth, forced his head against the floor and stepped on his stomach because he refused to eat, Harris County sher iffs investigators said. Authorities said the child’s mother watched the beating, then carried him to another room where she took the food out of his throat and gave him mouth-to-mouth re suscitation before calling an ambu lance. Harris County Children’s Protec tive Services spokesman Judy Hay said Jesse, his sister and three broth ers had been removed from the home in August 1985.
