Juveniles – testimony

Eugene P. appeals the orders finding his sons Taron P. and Jaden P. in need of protection or services pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 48.13(3), (3m), and (10), and the order finding his son Travis P. in need of protection or services pursuant to § 48.13(3m) and (10). On appeal, Eugene P. contends that the trial court erred in allowing testimony from Dr. Lynn Sheets, who opined, among other things, that the kinds of injuries suffered by Jaden P. after Eugene P. hit him on the back with a belt were consistent with child abuse. This court disagrees and affirms. This opinion will not be published.
