Dothan police arrested the mother of a 6-year-old girl Thursday for her alleged role in the child being forced to wash her mouth out with bleach.

Dothan Police Capt. Stacy Robinson confirmed police investigators arrested Allison Jewel Bobbins, 26, of Westgate Parkway, charged her with felony child abuse torture, willful abuse of a child under 18 years of age.

Robinson Bobbins is the mother of the 6-year-old victim in the child abuse case. He said police already arrested Bobbins’ boyfriend, 33-year-old Jason Courtney Thompson. Police charged Thompson with a similar charge last week.

Court records show police charged Bobbins for allegedly watching Thompson pour bleach into the victim’s mouth causing severe chemical burns. Police also charged Bobbins for allegedly not reporting what happened to police, and not seeking medical attention for the victim, her daughter.

Dothan Police Chief Steve Parrish held a press conference last week to release details around Thompson’s arrest.

Parrish said police first learned of the offense after his department’s Juvenile Investigations Division was contacted by the school last week.
