Ana Geusz can breathe easier now that her two-month-old baby is physically healthy; but most of her pregnancy was fraught with fear and complications.
Last December, Geusz was splattered with a bag of human feces when a group of teens threw the bag into Walgreen's in O'Fallon, Missouri. Geusz, ten weeks pregnant at the time of the incident, was referred to an infectious disease specialist.
On Monday, August 18th, 18-year-old Kyle Medley pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and property damage. A co-defendant, 18-year-old Justin Keiser, was scheduled for trial on the same charges in September. Two others were also charged as juveniles.
Medley could've gotten up to a year-and-a-half in county jail, but the judge gave him two years probation. During those two years, he must not have contact with the victim or his co-defendant.
Geusz, who works as a teacher, said she was angry and disappointed. At the time she felt so humiliated, she needed professional counseling.
