Sentenced: Missouri Baby Shaker Needs Help With His Drug, Depression & Anger Problems

A Missouri man accused of shaking his ex-girlfriend's foster child so hard that the infant was hospitalized in critical condition has been charged with felony child abuse.

Eddie Davis, 23, entered a not guilty plea at his arraignment Monday. He was jailed without bond.

The Springfield News-Leader reported that the infant was taken to a Springfield hospital last Wednesday with injuries consistent with being shaken.

According to the probable cause statement, the baby's foster mother told authorities that she left the boy and other children with Davis at a home in Republic, Missouri, while she went to work. She said the infant was cold, quiet and had limp limbs when she got home that afternoon. The statement said the baby was diagnosed with bleeding around the brain and continuous seizures. The mother said she previously had been in a relationship with Davis.

Republic police said Davis initially denied injuring the child but then later said he was "100% responsible" after police had him take a Computer Voice Stress Analyzer that showed signs of deception, according to the statement. Davis told police he needed help with his drug, depression and anger problems.

Prosecutors said Davis has a prior arrest for domestic assault in Taney County.

Rebecca Woelfel, a spokeswoman for the Missouri Department of Social Services, said in an email that information about child abuse investigations is closed except in limited circumstances. She wasn't immediately able to provide any information about the case.

The foster mother should be arrested.

The agency should also state that her home is closed and she will no longer be allowed to foster.

Thanks to her stupidity (I doubt she was unaware of his issues) the child may have permanent, life long challenges and the parents will get a nice fat check if there rights have not been severed.

I’m sure that’s a wide pool to award him the title from, but I’ll take it

Now now. Wait your turn. Sugar Cookie says TX is as F’d as FL so we’re due the next moniker.

We’ve waited this long for suitable marriage partners we aren’t related to, so I guess we can wait for this honor too
