Reid says Dow hid a video camera to record investigators talking to the child to ensure the boy didn't talk about any abuse.
Dow and Linscott are accused of beating her son so severely he suffered temporary blindness.
They fled New Hampshire and were captured two weeks later leaving a theme park in Orlando, Florida.
Dow's trial is likely to be delayed until summer and there are reports Linscott is ready to testify against him.
