Four members of a rural Iowa family have pleaded not guilty in the abduction and abuse of an 18-year-old relative who had allegedly showed up at a hospital so badly beaten that his brain was bleeding and so malnourished that he weighed just 70 pounds (32 kilograms), according to court documents.

FILE - This combo of booking images provided by the Story County, Iowa , Sheriff’s Office, show, from left, Gary Graham Jr., 44, Danielle Graham, 42, Aaron Williams, 20, all from Zearing, Iowa , were charged Monday, March 18, 2024, with first-degree kidnapping and willful injury. A fourth member, a 16-year-old girl, was not named.

The teen girl is charged as an adult, but The Associated Press is not naming her because of her age. Her attorney filed a request that her case be transferred to juvenile court, court records show. She is being held at a juvenile detention center; the other three are in a county jail. Medical workers determined that the injuries were in various stages of healing, indicating that they didn’t all happen at the same time, the document stated.
