Court records show a Cleveland man who pleaded guilty to a child abuse case in 2017 received a deferred sentence from the judge.

In July of 2017, Cleveland police say Douglas Allembaugh's wife left him alone with their daughter while she went to a job interview but police say when she came back she noticed bruises on the child.

Allembaugh received a 5-year deferred sentence which means he'll avoid jail time and his record will be cleared if he doesn't break any laws during that time period.
