Oakland County prosecutors have charged three Pontiac residents with child abuse and torture after two "severely malnourished" children were hospitalized last week, in the second major child abuse case to surface in the city this month.

Prosecutor Karen McDonald charged Arturo Bazan, 43, his wife Dulce Bazan, 42, and his adult son, Carlos Bazan-Hernandez, 24, with two counts each of first-degree child abuse and torture against two of Arturo Bazan's children. All three offenses are punishable by up to life in prison.
