Boy 11, Strangled And Killed His Mother's Girlfriend Four Year Old Son In The Home They All Shared

An 11-year-old Florida boy has been charged for choking a 4-year-old boy at a trailer park on Monday, leading to the boy’s death the next day.

The 4-year-old was found unconscious in a mobile home at the Westover Trailer Park in Palatka around 4 a.m. Monday, WESH reported. Twelve other people, including six adults, were in the home when the boy was found, but it’s unclear if anyone was there when the alleged choking happened.

The boy was rushed to a hospital in critical condition, and pronounced dead around 12:40 p.m. Tuesday.

The 11-year-old, who hasn’t been identified because he is a minor, was arrested in front of his mother and charged with aggravated battery, police said. He lived in the same home as the victim, according to News4Jax but it’s unclear what their relationship was and what led up to the alleged assault. It's also unknown if his charges will change following the boy's death.

Comment by Sarah Sankarsingh on July 31, 2015 at 10:51am: So as parents we should always pay close attention to whoever we trust our children with. That's the biggest mistake parents make, they think they can trust someone just because of who they should be to their children. Me I trust no one with them until I see that I can, and there's only a small handful of people in my family, I'll trust and 4 friends I know I can.

Comment by Sarah Sankarsingh on July 31, 2015 at 10:47am: I agree because I don't trust my man's 17 yr old with his 5 yr old sister or his step siblings for too long. He's mean, immature, bad tempered self centered, saltfish, lies, full of drama, thinks hes a grown man, disrespectfu, cuss too much, and god forbid a soon to be high school drop out.
This kid gets everything he wants, wares nothing but name brands from head to toe, goes where he wants, hes a brat. His mother made that monster so i will never leave his younger siblings with him

Comment by Valerie Smith on July 31, 2015 at 10:22am: it has never been a good idea to allow older children to play with younger children unattended.

Comment by Sarah Sankarsingh on July 30, 2015 at 6:31pm: One of the reasons I stopped coming on here, is because people forget about the subject and start to fight and fuss.
RIP little one

Comment by karen glass on July 30, 2015 at 4:51pm: Sad

Comment by Mike Jones on July 30, 2015 at 12:23pm: While I agree with the fact that that could be it, we as a people are just so quick to go to that before we adress what happened. Him mothers personal choices are hers and once he grew up, so would his be. Regardless of what we feel or we preach about the bible, we all have choices. It's just hard to flare him killing a 4 year old because of this. But we all have out opinions. I just choose not to make mine the General consensus. No offense intended.

Comment by Bombahdrop on July 30, 2015 at 9:41am: @Mike why can't what nick said be a possiblility? You may see it one way but others see in another way. I myself thought the same thing and its a boy too he was mad as hell probley combined with where his mothers attention was more towards her girl and her kid and no attention given to him could very well be the motive. Its unfortunate that an innocent baby was killed over a JEALOUS HEART and the fact that they abomination these woman put him through day in and day out affected that boy. Thou shall not kill and its so sad that this lost boy lost the battle of temptation to kill someone. I agree with nick, those to trailer trash lesbos drove him to do it.
