Dad Kills Toddler for Disconnecting XBox
Thanks again to hot tipper Patty for sending along the sad, sad story of Tyrone Spellman. The Philadelphia, PA dad stands accused of murdering his daughter, Alayiah Turman, because she disconnected his Xbox while he was in the middle of a hot game. Even worse: Spellman reportedly tucked the girl in after the incident and told her mom that she was "sleeping". In other words, Alayiah may have been alive after her beating, and Spellman’s desire to save his own ass may have prevented her from being saved. Nice.
Human Services was reportedly called to Turman house before in response to a neighbor’s complaint. Unfortunately, they didn’t see anything amiss, and Spellman wasn’t around during those visits. No word on whether dad plans to cop to the charges against him, or whether he’ll attempt to prove that he isn’t the awful bastard everybody’s making him out to be. Based on the police report and medical evidence, it sounds like he best steel himself for a long stew in prison.
