He told the police he fed and swaddled the 6Mo infant before putting them down for a nap. The child was his girlfriend's.

After further investigation, Willie George Northern Jr. was identified as a suspect and taken into custody just before 2 a.m. on Jan. 5. He was initially charged with first-degree cruelty to children and tampering with evidence. After the infant died late Jan. 6, investigators obtained a warrant charging Northern with murder.
 
Willie George Northern Jr., 24, was on house arrest in Georgia's Houston County on the day he was tasked with watching his girlfriend's 6-month-old baby Myles. But her house was located in Bibb County, over 30 miles from where Northern was supposed to stay. Now Northern is charged in connection with Myles' death after authorities said the little boy died on Tuesday.
According to the Bibb County Sheriff's Office, Northern was watching Myles while the baby's mother was at work on Monday.
Northern claimed that he put the baby to bed after feeding and swaddling him. When he went to check on the baby, he saw that he was "unresponsive" and called 911. After first responders arrived at the home, they rushed Myles to a children's hospital for treatment.

While at the hospital, medical staff said the 6-month-old had "severe injuries" and was transferred by air to another hospital while in critical condition. According to court records obtained by local CBS affiliate WMAZ, medical staff said Myles had sustained multiple brain bleeds and a broken collarbone.
Bibb County officials noted that Northern was wearing an ankle monitor when they encountered him. It was not immediately clear if Northern would face additional charges for allegedly violating house arrest.

Yeah. Nothing says "use this guy as your free babysitter" like an ankle monitor.
