The adopted children at the center of an investigation into alleged child abuse by a Middlefield couple have been appointed a lawyer, according to a report in the Middletown Press.

Tamara and Peter Gable appeared in court Thursday where they face three counts of risk of injury to a minor and three counts of third-degree assault following their arrest last fall.

According to state police, authorities began investigating the abuse last April.

The couple is due back in court on Jan. 30.
