Erica Michelle Shryock is an American resident of El Dorado, Arkansas.

Erica Michelle Shryock is the mother of 2 children and is in a relationship with Charles Elliott.

On May 14, 2017, Erica and Charles were arrested when their newborn baby was taken to the Magnolia Regional Medical Center in Magnolia, Arkansas.

The infant was discovered to have about 75 to 100 bites scattered on its body. The baby also needed to have facial reconstruction surgery due to a one-inch-wide wound down to its skull from the rodent bites.

Physicians stated that the baby was probably in distress for at least hours, and that the parents were either incapacitated or absent to not have responded to the baby’s suffering.

The Magnolia Police Department found evidence of a rodent problem as well as blood at the home where Shryock, Elliott, the baby, and another roommate lived.

Erica and Charles made their first court appearance on May 17, 2017, on one count each of first-degree endangering the welfare of a minor.
