The main verb of this sentence is "appeared". So, "charged with ill-treating their four-year-old daughter" is an adverbial clause and you're right that it is in passive form. But since it is an adverbial clause, only the past participle "charged" is needed. There is no need to include the verb-to-be "are". The sentence is originally correct. You don't need to rewrite it."Appear in court" means to attend a court as a defendant.
