A Michigan man is facing life in prison after police say he beat his girlfriend’s 4-year-old son to death for wetting his pants.
24-year-old Brandon Hayes could spend the rest of his life in prison with no chance of parole for the death of little Dominick Calhoun.
Police say the young boy had been tortured by Hayes for a weekend after he wet his pants sitting on the couch.
Hayes reportedly became so enraged that he tortured the child; burning his knuckles, knocking out his teeth and beating him until his skull was crushed.
Prosecutors also say he began “pummeling him with fists and kicking him on his arms, legs and genitalia.”
The boy’s mother Corrin Baker says she tried to save her son but was attacked by Hayes.
A battered and bruised Baker told reporters,
“My baby’s gone, and I wish it was me.”
Doctors at a local hospital report that the boy was the worst beating victim they’d ever seen.
