STRUTHERS - Two women have been indicted in connection with a case of alleged child abuse in Struthers.

According to court records, 33-year-old Kamille Hibbitt and 30-year-old Essence Revely were indicted on three counts each of endangering children, with two of them being third-degree felonies and the third being a first-degree misdemeanor. They were also both indicted on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.

Additionally, Revely was indicted on a third-degree felony charge of tampering with evidence.

Court records do not show an arraignment date for either suspect at this time.

The charges stem from an incident in October of 2025 when Hibbitt brought her seven-year-old child to the hospital with severe injuries. Police said the child was unconscious and covered in bruises.

Police said the boy's core temperature was just 85 degrees, his sodium level was much lower than normal, he had no pulse in his legs and had lost a significant amount of weight compared to the previous year.

Hibbitt allegedly told police she delayed seeking care for her son because she was afraid she would be accused of child abuse.

According to the complaint, Revely, a close friend of Hibbitt's, admitted to police that several injury incidents occurred with the child while she was caring for him, further telling police that she and Hibbitt encouraged the child to "get better" on his own rather than go to the hospital.

The tampering with evidence charge against Revely stems from her allegedly cleaning areas of the house later determined to contain biological material, even though she had been informed the case was under investigation and detectives were obtaining a search warrant.
