Shawn Custis , 42 , allegedly forced his way into a Millburn , New Jersey , home around 10 a.m. on June 21 and brutally beat the woman while her young daughter sat motionless on a nearby couch . The woman 's 18-month old son was sleeping upstairs . Custis fled the house with an undetermined amount of jewelry , Millburn police said .
