Lakendra Yashekia Williams beats her 8-wk-old son to death.

[Satanica]

The 25-yr-old Williams was booked into jail after being indicted on the charges of murder and aggravated assault.

In 2018 she was arrested a domestic violence/assault charge after Children's of Alabama in Birmingham reported a child suffering severe head trauma. It was determined the baby had multiple fractures to his head and bleeding to the brain. The infant died but the date isn't given.

In an interview with a detective Williams had several excuses including dropping the baby on his head and possibly elbowing him while asleep. Finally, though, she admitted hurting the baby because she was annoyed with his whining. The deposition said the blunt force injuries to the boy happened between March 26 and March 28, 2018.

The indictment does say she inflicted the injury with the intent to cause death. $60,000 bond and she's still in jail.

A Tuscaloosa woman has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for the 2018 beating of her 8-week-old son.

LaKendra Williams pleaded guilty in March to the death of infant Demarious Kamari Henry. On Tuesday, according to Tuscaloosa police, Judge Daniel Pruet handed down her sentence.

In March of 2018, Demarious’s father called 911 in panic.


Police said he told them his son usually cried and fussed when the water was filling the sink for a bath, but that morning the baby remained silent and sleepy.

Demarious was airlifted to Children’s of Alabama, where doctors discovered multiple skull fracture and bleeding in the baby’s brain. Those injuries led to cardiac arrest.

Tuscaloosa police Investigator Dornell Cousette, who less than a year later would be killed in the line of duty, visited Demarious in the hospital on the day the baby turned 8 weeks old.

Williams told Cousette that she had dropped her baby in the kitchen, police said. She later told him she may have elbowed him in her sleep.

“Cousette continued to press her until she admitted to harming the child because he was being whiny,'’’ accord to police and court records.

Demarious was kept on life support until his death more than a year later on Feb. 11, 2019.

“A few days after, Cousette handed over a tiny onesie and pair of newborn pants to the evidence tech to be stored in the basement at TPD headquarters,’’ according to a Tuscaloosa Police Department post on Wednesday.

“He lost his life in the line of duty seven months later.”

Williams was initially arrested on a domestic violence/assault charge in March of 2018. She was indicted on the murder charge within a week of her son’s death.

“Before his death, Investigator Cousette worked with the medical staff, case workers, the Tuscaloosa Violent Crimes Unit and Tuscaloosa County District Attorney’s Office to build a strong case against Demarious’ mother,’’ police said in the Facebook post, which thanked Tuscaloosa County District Attorney Hays Webb for his office’s work in securing a “just punishment.”

“We think Investigator Cousette would have been happy to know justice had been served for Demarious, and for the first-time father who lost his son so young,’’ the post read.
