bit and beat his own son to death...because
he wouldn't stop crying...and blamed it on a
neighbour's dog.
From NY Daily News
A Minnesota man who allegedly bit and
beat his infant son to death two weeks
ago because he apparently wouldn’t
stop crying blamed the attack on the
neighbor’s dog but police aren’t buying
it and he is now being charged with
second degree murder.
Emery James Jenkins, 38, of Deer River
told police that he had accidentally
dropped his 3-month-old son on his
head while in the bathtub and that the
neighbor’s dog had attacked the boy
while he was in a car seat wearing a
monkey suit, according to CBS
Minnesota.
The medical examiner’s office, however,
tells a different story.
They said in the report that the baby
suffered a skull fracture, blunt force
trauma to the body, and cutting or
biting injuries to the chest, hands,
fingers, feet and toes.
The boy’s mother claims that Jenkins
made up the story before eventually
calling 911.
Jenkins, who has reportedly received
numerous assault charges in the past
including a felony domestic assault
conviction in 2010 apparently didn’t
want to bring his son to the doctor
because the blood had soaked through
the baby’s clothes. The child died in the
hospital two days later and police
recovered baby clothes and pillow cases
with dried blood stains, according to the
report.
Ex-girlfriends of Jenkins who were cited
in the criminal complaint in the report
said that he has a history of violence
and drug use including
methamphetamine. In one instance
described by a girlfriend in the
complaint, Jenkins allegedly slammed a
different son’s head into a car door. He
had also reportedly made verbal threats
about hurting children.
If convicted, Jenkins faces up to 40
years in prison.
