An Oklahoma couple is in the wind after they were charged with child abuse and their children taken into state custody.

Court documents say that Jamie Ahmad and her boyfriend, Robert Davis, are running from a warrant for their arrests on four counts of child abuse, KOCO reports.

The warrants allege that they beat a 10-year-old boy with tree branch and used a stun gun on him as punishment. Officials found the stun gun hidden beneath a mattress during a search of the home three months ago.

Court documents say the boy had “scars and marks” from the stun gun that were “too numerous to count.” A doctor said he was “at a high risk of further injury or death if returned to the hands of the caregiver who inflicted these injuries.”

It’s not clear when the doctor made that determination, but according to court documents, the abuse first surfaced last summer, months before officials issued warrants for the couple’s arrest. The state Department of Human Services removed several children from the home, but not the 10-year-old boy. The department declined to say why.

In October, the boy told a school resource officer about the abuse, begging not to be sent home. The officer reported the information to the state agency which had left him in the home months earlier.

The boy told investigators that Ahmad and Davis forced him to do his school work in a freezer and that he was given five minutes to complete it or be beaten with a tree branch.

Law&Crime reported that Ahmad admitted to DHS in the summer using the taser on the boy for punishment and was told not to.

“Jamie told the DHS worker that there wasn’t a law against her using the taser on [her son],” documents said.

When police served a search warrant at the home on November 15, Ahmad reportedly told them she’d given the taser to a woman she walks with at a park after the incident with the DHS las summer. But officers serving the search warrant found it between the mattress and box spring of the couple’s bed. Ahmad said she had forgotten the woman returned it the day before, the affidavit said.

The boy has since been removed from the home, while Ahmad and Davis remained free. DHS declined to say when they took the boy out of the home.

Authorities finally secured warrants for the couple’s arrest on Tuesday, but Midwest City Interim Chief of Police Greg Wipfli said on Sunday that they had moved out of their home, and investigators have no idea where they are.

If they’re located and arrested, they’ll be jailed on bonds of $50,000 each.
