A Georgia man faces murder charges after an autopsy disputed his claim that a 21-month-old boy choked to death on a cookie.
27-year-old Willie Earl Sanders of Gray is charged with felony murder and aggravated battery.
Gray police Maj. Chris Williams says Sanders told the boy's mother on Oct. 14 that Preston James Nelson was choking as she came out of a supermarket. Nelson died Oct. 16 in a hospital.
Williams say autopsy findings indicate Nelson died from bleeding in the brain as a result of being shaken. Hospital employees concluded he had suffered brain damage from blunt force trauma.
