Sentenced: Woman, Boyfriend Violently Abused Her 8YO Son For Days, Leading To His Death

[Sugar Cookie]

A woman and her boyfriend violently abused the woman’s 8-year-old son for more than a week, leading to the boy’s death, Irving police say.

Leslie Curtis, 30, and Codie Aldridge McCrory, 29, each face a charge of capital murder in the death of Delmor Best-Curtis.

Irving police were called about 5:30 p.m. Friday to the Magnuson Extended Stay and Suites in the 100 block of West Airport Freeway, near North O’Connor Road, where a person had been reported to be unconscious.

Officers found Delmor unresponsive on a bed and began CPR. He was taken to Children’s Medical Center Dallas and pronounced dead.

The responding officers noticed “numerous injuries,” police said, and an investigation found that the couple had been “violently abusing” the boy for at least 10 days.

Curtis and her son had moved into the hotel with McCrory in November, according to police, and the boy had not been attending school.

McCrory was being held Monday in the Irving jail, with bail set at $1 million. He also faces a charge of injury to a child.

"It’s pretty bad. From bite marks to burn marks to fingernail marks, you can tell he was choked before because there were fingernail marks around the neck," Reeves said. "Some of them are so graphic, it’s kind of disgusting to even talk about them."

According to the arrest warrant affidavit, the little boy also "had blood on his head, facial swelling and an obviously broken left arm."

Both are useless as fuck. This poor boy, old enough to know some happy times, I am sure, to 10 days of torture. And this sow has the nerve to look sad. Probably because she got popped in the eye at some point but still didn't see fit to get her ass and her son out of that fucking motel room. GAAAAAAAAAAAAH

"It’s pretty bad. From bite marks to burn marks to fingernail marks, you can tell he was choked before because there were fingernail marks around the neck," Reeves said. "Some of them are so graphic, it’s kind of disgusting to even talk about them."

According to the arrest warrant affidavit, the little boy also "had blood on his head, facial swelling and an obviously broken left arm."

"The male described the fact that he had kind of pushed the little boy, and I guess he hit his head on the bed and then he pushed him again and he hit his head against the wall," Reeves said. "He went unconscious at that point. And then he tried to put him in the shower to get him to wake back up, but that was unsuccessful."

Curtis told police the abuse happened over the last ten days and claimed McCrory beat her, too.

The affidavit says "Curtis had a black right eye and significant bruising to the left side of her face…

Leslie Curtis had seen the defendant kick the victim in the head on more than one occasion." She also says McCrory would bite her and her son.

"If the child moved while being hit or beaten, the male would sometimes bite the child to teach them to quit moving," Reeves said.

Police say Delmor’s mom moved to Texas to be with McCrory, and the little boy was never enrolled in school, making it more difficult for anyone to report or notice the abuse.

"They knew the difference between right and wrong," Reeves said. "They knew exactly what they were doing."
