VANCOUVER, Wash. -- A father who allegedly tried to circumcise his 8-year-old son in the bathroom after reading Bible passages has been charged with first-degree assault on a child.
Edwin Bruce Baxter, of Vancouver, faces at least 10 years in prison if convicted.
According to an affidavit, Baxter told sheriff's deputies he tried to circumcise his son with a kitchen knife after reading chapters from the books of Genesis and Exodus that call for circumcision.
The 33-year-old Baxter called 911 when the boy appeared to be losing too much blood. The 8-year-old was taken to a hospital where he received several stitches.
Baxter lives with his wife and nine children in a two bedroom rental home. Baxter was once convicted of domestic violence in 1993 and has been reported in the past for allegedly failing to enroll the children in school.
