There were three other kids in the home, ages 5-8, and they were all taken into protective custody.
Geneva Robinson, 49, was arrested Tuesday after she took a 7-year-old girl in her custody to the hospital because she could not control the child any more, according to a police report.
The girl appeared to be malnourished, had bruises and cuts all over her body and showed signs of being tied up, police said...
The girl said Robinson, who called herself Nelda when she dressed as a witch, would take a dog leash and hang the girl from the garage ceiling by leashes underneath her armpits and and tell her the creatures in the attic were going to come get her, according to the report.

Police said the child was "malnourished and very thin, her "armpits were bruised with small cuts and "her face had scratches and whelps on it. They also said "the back of her neck had scarring" and "along her jaw line she had whelps and bruising." Reports state the child's skin was coming off her infected ankles.
Hospital workers called DHS, and the little girl told them Robinson "would dress up as a witch, wearing a green mask, and would take her out to the garage, bind her up at night and make her sleep on a pair of jeans, because she was in trouble"...
Police showed up to Robinson's house, and they said as soon as they walked into the garage, they saw "a pink dog leash hanging with a black dog leash connected and attached to the garage door railings on the ceiling." They also found a "horse whip" and "dagger" along with a witch hat, black wig, and "hooded cloak with red eyes costume." They said the items are evidence that backs up the child's story.
