The 12 year old will not serve life in prison but will be doing his adult sentence in a juvenile facility. Authorities said he was killed due to a beating in the head afterwards he was rammed into bookshelf. According to a police report the child suffered "a skull fracture, subdural hemorrhage, subdural hematoma, bruising on the left eye, and bruising on the bridge of his nose."

  Biannela Susana, the mother of the boys, is also in jail charged with aggravated manslaughter. The 25-year-old initially told authorities she was at home when the incident occurred, according to a police report. She later  changed her story admitting that she was not there at the time, and was told the toddler fell from a bunk bed.Susana told police she tried to help the 2-year-old.
