A Florida woman has been found guilty of locking her boyfriend's son in a cupboard and starving him and could now face up to 120 years behind bars.

Sharon Glass, 49, from Brevard, was found guilty on eight counts of aggravated child abuse on Friday after four days on trial.

She and her boyfriend Michael Marshall, 40, were arrested in 2012 after police found Marshall's 12-year-old son lying on the bathroom floor weighing just 40 pounds.

On Friday Glass told the court that she hadn't noticed the boy was emaciated because he was always wearing baggy jumpers.

She also claimed she had nothing to do with disciplining the boy, who was regularly locked in a cupboard and tied to a bed post.

She said she wanted to leave the relationship with Marshall, but that during the four years she dated him he threatened to kill her several times. 

Marshall is currently in jail awaiting trial on similar charges.

During the trial the boy, now 14, described being starved nearly to death and locked in both a closet and a bathroom for days on end by his father and his father's girlfriend.

Looking far healthier than he did when he was rescued two years ago weighing just 40 pounds, the boy testified at Sharon Glass' child abuse trial Wednesday, softly recounting his time with the woman, who he first met in 2009 when he was in the third grade and she was dating his dad, Michael Marshall.

Giving short answers to the prosecutor's questions, he said Glass quickly moved into their home in Titusville, Florida and he began to call her 'mom.' But he soon started getting in trouble, beginning with the time Glass accused him of stealing an iPod, he told the court.

According to clickorlando.com, he testified he didn't take the gadget, but was later accused of stealing other things, and was severely punished for taking fruit off a tree and hiding food.

'I was constantly locked up,' the boy, who hasn't been identified, said.

He said he would escape when he was put in his room, leading Glass to threaten to leave Marshall if he didn't lock the boy up.
