The sickest kind of news seems to always come out of Florida and the trend continues with the case of Corey Gordon of North Lauderdale.
He is standing accused of raping and beating Khyese Coach, his girlfriend’s three-year-old son, to death and then arriving to her place of employment to pick her up with the toddler’s lifeless body in the backseat.
Reports Local10.com:
Broward Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Keyla Concepcion said Corey Gordon, 28, will face a charge of first-degree murder in the death of Khyese Coach. He was being held without bond Wednesday morning.
Chantel Haye, 20, arrived at the emergency room at Coral Springs Medical Center on Monday afternoon with the lifeless body of her son.
Concepcion said Haye left Khyese in the care of Gordon while she was at work for her first day at a telemarketing company in Boca Raton. When Gordon picked up Haye from work Monday afternoon, she noticed something was wrong with Khyese, who was cold to the touch, and demanded that Gordon take her to the hospital.
“I kept asking him, ‘What did you do? What did you do?'” Haye told Local 10 News.
Khyese’s aunt, Penny Williams, said the boy “had marks on his face, both sides of his face. His lip was busted, and he was just stretched out.”
WVSN reports that nurses also found injuries consistent to that of sexual abuse inside the boy’s diaper.
Despite the looming charges, Gordon is prepared to take down Haye with him, as he’s now recanting on his earlier confession (most likely at the behest of his attorney).
According to Miami CBS, Gordon is claiming that his girlfriend delivered the death blows while he merely “disciplined” young Khyese.
One fact is evident in this case, however. A child is dead and he didn’t go out in peace.
