Camille Rechae Lewis and John Lawrence Miles (Tulsa County Jail)

A mother and stepfather have been arrested in Oklahoma in connection with torturing their two children for years, one of whom died and the other left malnourished and scarred.

Camille Rechae Lewis and John Lawrence Miles were taken into custody last week and charged with two counts of child abuse by injuring, torturing, or maiming and three counts of child neglect, jail records show. Miles was also charged with one count of child abuse by injury and one count of child sexual abuse.

Police have not charged either parent in the death of their 11-year-old son. Police said the mom claimed he ran away, but officials said there is an ongoing homicide investigation into the death.

The case came to light when the children’s grandmother contacted police on Jan. 27 to file a report about her grandson, saying that he had been missing for several years and was possibly dead, according to a news release from the Tulsa Police Department.

The grandmother also reported that her granddaughter had been the victim of serious continued sexual abuse.

The grandmother told investigators that the mother had left her 13-year-old daughter with her in September 2022. The grandmother described the girl as skin and bones, officials said.

She also said that when Lewis left the girl, she told her mother that the 11-year-old boy was dead.
