Those convicted can be jailed for up to eight years, fined up to $8,000, or both. Police investigations are ongoing. Stall owners described the girl as skinny and small, and said they rarely saw her walk on her own. Instead, she would walk on her father’s feet like a toddler as he held onto her shoulders.
