Horrific Update: 22MO Boy Developed Sepsis & Suffered A Slow, Painful Decline Until He Died April 12

[Sugar Cookie]

Court documents said around April 3, the 22-month-old boy suffered severe burns that looked like they had been caused by hot or boiling water poured over his head, affecting 40% of his body, including his shoulders, neck, chest, back and hips.

Police said Alexsander Byrne discovered the burns and found “big chunks” of skin peeling off during a diaper change.

Artnesia Aaliyah Baptist and Byrne both denied they knew how the victim got the burns but said they didn’t seek medical help because they were afraid the Department of Child Safety would take the children, police said.

Baptist reportedly only gave the toddler burn cream, Tylenol and aloe vera. Byrne’s parents offered to take the boy to urgent care but he lied and said that it was closed and the victim was “getting better,” court documents said.

Police said the couple hid the injuries from the boy’s biological father and Byrne threatened to kill the father if he showed up.

Court documents said Byrne searched the internet for “skin condition” and saw there was sepsis and told police, “I was like, I don’t know, that could be it.”

He also searched for first-degree burns and second-degree burns, investigators said. Baptist’s internet history showed she searched for burn cream, court documents said.

Byrne admitted to the police that the boy ran a fever, threw up and didn’t walk again after the burns, police said.

Investigators said the boy developed sepsis and suffered a slow, painful decline until he died April 12.

Investigators said the pair moved from their home in Mesa to Baptist’s brother’s home a week before the arrest.

Baptist and Byrne were booked into jail on one count of first-degree murder and one count of child abuse.

These two are devils from the pits of hell...

An Arizona mother and her boyfriend are facing murder and child abuse charges after allegedly pouring scalding hot water over the head of the mom's toddler and keeping his injuries secret until the boy died from a severe infection and sepsis.

Artnesia Aaliyah Baptist, 24, and Alexsander Byrne, 21, are charged in Maricopa County with killing Baptist's 22-month-old son in April. The Mesa couple then "hid" the boy's burns from his biological father and threatened to kill the man if he tried to pick the child up.

Byrne later admitted that they "intentionally refused medical treatment for the child" because they thought Child Protective Services would get involved.

"[Byrne] admitted that he knew it was wrong, illegal, caused additional injury to the child, additional pain, and caused the death of the child," a probable cause affidavit obtained by Law&Crime says.

The document accuses Baptist and Byrne of causing "sustained severe liquid burns" on April 3 that appeared to be "similar to hot/boiling water poured over the victim's head, which ran down the victim's neck, shoulders, chest, back and hips and caused the skin to loosen and blister."

Police say 40% of his body was burned.

"The smell of his skin filled the emergency room with the odor of rotten flesh," the affidavit says. "The skin on the victim's shoulders, clavicle, and down his sternum, under his hair, down the back of his neck, his back, buttocks, and hips, was missing/red and appeared infected."
