It's amazing how the media can portray someone, when in reality it is furthest from the truth. There is alot of facts that is coming out now that was not mentioned when he was arrested. One such fact, the landlord who called the police had an axe to grind with Badalamenti. Turns out Badalamenti is suing the landlord and were in court against eachother over a month ago. Landlord claims "for over a month the child has been crying and he can hear him being beaten". If someone was suing me and I heard him beat a child, it sure wouldn't take me a month to call police. Let me rephrase that, even if I wasn't getting sued and I heard a child being beaten, it wouldn't take me a month to call. Turns out, the child never said Badalamenti hit him with the belt, the mother hit the child with a belt (not a weighlifters belt). No steriods were found in the apartment. All the facts are coming out and it is looking like this guy is completely innocent, yet his life is ruined due to the media and landlord claiming he was on steriods.
A Mom Badalamenti was found GUILTY of seven of the eight charges following a two week jury trial. His bail was immediately revoked and he awaits his sentencing in Aug; he faces seven years and the D.A. wants him to receive the maximum.
The mother's trial begins in two weeks; though it is thought that she is not as intelligence impaired as Badalamenti and will try for a plea bargain to receive less time.
Yes, Badalamenti's life is ruined, but that was his fault,not the media's.
