Miami mom tortured 3-year-old son to death
A 3-year-old Florida boy is dead after enduring horrific torture including having been burned, beaten and thrown across a room - and by his mother, according to authorities.
Fafane Caze, 21, was arrested Tuesday night on charges of torture and aggravated child abuse after her son was found with signs of severe trauma and sexual abuse Tuesday morning, but Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Maria Elena Verde increased the charges in a Wednesday hearing
Ghanson Debrosse was rushed to the Jackson North Medical Center about 3:30 am on Tuesday after his mother, Fafane Caze, called 9-1-1 to report that he wasn't breathing but the doctors at the hospital determined that the 3-year-old boy had been dead for several hours.
Caze told investigators that the boy recently had been in Haiti visiting relatives. When she picked him up from the airport, she initially claimed, he showed signs of abuse.
After 12 hours of questioning, Police say the boy's mother confessed to it all. Fafane Caze, 21, has been jailed on one count of aggravated child abuse/torture, with additional charges expected to follow.
'She didn’t shed a tear,' Neal Cuevas, a major with the Miami Police Department, told the Miami Herald. 'She cared more about getting arrested than she did about her son.'
'If anybody deserves the additional charge she deserves it,' Cuevas said. 'She doesn’t deserve her freedom. She doesn’t deserve being around her children and she definitely doesn’t deserve to be around anyone else’s children.'
Caze has two other children - ages 1 and 4 - who were placed in foster care following their mother's arrest after no friends or members of Caze's family stepped forward to take them in.
