Sabrina Ray, 16 died May 12, 2017 as the result of severe malnutrition. Her adoptive parents have been charged with her death. In 2013 Marc & Misty Ray adopted Sabrina Busch, changing her last name to Ray.
DES MOINES, Iowa —
The adoptive brother of Sabrina Ray is out of prison after serving 3 years of a 10 year sentence, that began in 2018. He is now in a work-release program after serving time for his role in the 16-year-old's starvation death.
A judge sentenced Justin Ray to 10 years behind bars after admitting to drop kicking and pushing Sabrina Ray down a flight of stairs. Her injuries prevented the child from being able to eat, talk or walk normally in the last few months of her life. She got no medical care for her injuries. Even before this incident, the child was often starved for days according to her siblings in the home.
Justin Ray is one of five people charged in connection with her 2017 death.
Sabrina Ray's adoptive parents, Marc and Misty Ray, were sentenced to life in prison.
Her adoptive grandmother, Carla Bousman, is serving 20 years in prison. A judge sentenced Josie Bousman, Sabrina's adoptive cousin, to a maximum of 14 years in jail.
Sabrina weighed 56 pounds at the time of her death.
