Two sisters, Glenndria and LaShirley Morris is being accused of beating a 3-year-old boy to death as punishment for taking a cupcake from the kitchen.
The 2 sisters murdered KeJuan Mason at their Atlanta home last October after the hungry toddler took the cake from the kitchen.
KeJuan’s legal guardian is said to have spanked KeJuan with her hand while LaShirley battered him over the head with the baseball bat.
Glenndria originally told cops that KeJuan had choked on the cupcake, prompting her to perform CPR, but that emergency responders arrived too late to save him. Later she changed her story to claim the cupcake was successfully removed from LeJuan’s throat, and that he was ‘breathing and talking later’, only to die in his sleep.
The pair were indicted on felony murder charges Tuesday and face life in prison if convicted. KeJuan’s mom Geraldine Mason asked a judge to remove her boy from care just three days before his death, reported the Ledger Enquirer, but her request was turned down.
