VICKSBURG, MS — It may be arguably the worst instance of child abuse ever caught on video. What is worse, is that the perpetrator was just a child himself.
What appears to be a very disturbed 9-year-old child at the Kiddie Center Day Care is seen on surveillance video beating and kicking toddlers while the day care worker has her back turned.
According to WTVR, the worker, Sandra Trevillion, was constantly away from the children – even on the phone sometimes—giving the little attacker plenty of opportunities to bite, savagely punch and even drop-kick two babies.
As soon as Trevillion would come back around to check on one of the crying children, the boy would pat them or play innocent. Then just as soon as she would leave, he would go after them again.
“There were bruises, contusion, no broken bones, according to what we’re being told; a busted lip, bite marks, pinch marks,” said Chief Walter Armstrong, Vicksburg Police Department.
WTVR said that about 20 minutes after the little girl who was attacked went home, her dad Jamie Williams came back mad. He went to the daycare center and he asked who had hit his child.
The kids pointed to a child in the room and dad headed that way.
The video show Williams hit the child, but it was the wrong child.
The 49-year-old daycare worker faces two counts of child neglect. She was also been fired.
The father, who is 29 years old, faces a simple assault charge.
And what happened to the attacker? The child care facility says he is no longer enrolled there.
And what does his family have to say?
WLBT interviewed the young boy’s aunt, Vinia Dolley, and she said she could not believe her nephew could do such a thing.
“He bad. He fight but he don’t fight little babies. He do also have a problem. He take medicine every day and he just a normal child,” Dolley told WLBT. “I feel bad about him jumping on a 2-year-old baby, he 9 years old. He don’t fight his own 2-year-old brother like that or cousins.”
Well sistah, we think you better take a closer look!
All I can say is—this child needs a lot of love and it makes you wonder if he is enduring this kind of abuse. Someone needs to get him some help and keep him away from defenseless kids.
