Mark R. Adams Jr. of Sheboygan County, Wisc. says he was only "playing vampire" when he tried the suck blood from the neck of 3-year-old boy he was babysitting after watching the HBO vampire series True Blood. It's a story that's all too common.
The child's mother — Adams' former roommate — told police she dropped the boy off about 5 p.m. on Jan. 26 and returned three hours later to find the boy crying on the kitchen floor. The boy immediately said Adams bit him on the neck. Three bite marks were clearly visible on the child's neck, two on one side and one on the other. When confronted, Adams said, "I'm not a pedophile," and told the mother that he was simply playing vampire. Adams then grew upset and told the woman to leave. As the woman got in her car, she said Adams rushed at her and punched the driver's side window. When she rolled down the window to yell at him, he punched her in the face. In an interview with police, Adams said he didn't mean to hurt the boy and claimed initially that the injuries happened while goofing around or wrestling. He later admitted the possible reference to sucking the child's blood and said he and the boy were watching "True Blood."Mark, 43, was charged with physical abuse of a child and disorderly conduct, filed Monday and, if convicted, will serve three years, three months in prison for both charges.
