WOODBURY -- A Gloucester County man and his girlfriend were indicted on Wednesday in connection with a life-threatening assault against the girlfriend's son, the county prosecutor's office has announced.

Giovanni Crucitti, 24, will face trial for allgedly assaulting a toddler in December of 2014 (Salem County Jail).

Giovanni Crucitti, 24, of Washington Township, will face trial on charges of attempted murder, aggravated assault and endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly attacking his girlfriend's 2-year-old son in December of 2014.

On the day after Christmas last year, the boy was taken to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in critical condition. He was severely bruised and bleeding internally, investigators said, and his kidneys had begun to fail. He survived, however, and is now in the custody of relatives. The GCPO said the boy's health is still being monitored by doctors.

Crucitti was arrested on Dec. 27, 2014, at which point he was also charged with possession of child pornography in connection with a picture on his cell phone. A press release about his indictment did not provide details about whether the child porn charge was connected to the assault.

Alyssa Barilaro, 21, was indicted for child endangerment Dec. 23, 2015 (Salem County Jail).

Alyssa Barilaro, 21, also of Washington Township, was arrested at her Williamstown job on Wednesday after the indictment. The prosecutor's office said that although Barilaro was not home when Crucitti allegedly attacked her son, she failed to seek medical treatment for some time afterward, and refused to cooperate with the investigation. She will go to trial for child endangerment, and was held in jail on $30,000 bail.
