Police in America have arrested an evil mum for beating, burning, and even tasing her three-year-old son to death.
Cops were called to the home in the city of Tacoma in Washington state on 12th February after reports of an unresponsive child.
When officers arrived at the property, they could only pronounce the little lad dead.
Harrowingly, police told how victim P. L.’s face was covered in bruises, burn marks, and cuts.
Tattooed mum Ivey Marie Lewis – who is pregnant and has another son, one-year-old J. W. – unconvincingly claimed P. L. would regularly run into walls head-first.
As well as the injuries on his face, police found marks all over his body suggesting he had been beaten with a blunt object.
Chillingly, they said, he also appeared to have been tased.
Investigators went on to find dried blood spattered on walls inside the home.
Cruel Lewis, 25, eventually admitted to whipping young P. L. with a belt and an electrical cord.
She punished him, she claimed, because he had urinated on a mattress.
Preliminary autopsy results have given the youngster’s cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head.
The suspect is remanded in custody and faces murder charges.
Tacoma Police Department said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: “On February 12, 2023, at 7:35 p.m., officers responded to a third hand report of an unresponsive child cold to the touch in an apartment in the 3200 block of South Mason Avenue.
“Upon arrival, officers were let into the apartment and led to the three-year-old male.
“Life-saving measures were immediately started but the child was declared deceased on scene.
“Detectives and crime scene technicians responded.
“A 25-year-old female on scene was arrested and booked into the Pierce County Jail for Murder Second Degree.
“A second child in the home was placed into protective custody.
“The investigation is ongoing.”
