Authorities have arrested a 24-year-old Texas man and charged him with capital murder after he killed a 1-year-old baby he was watching by using “wrestling-style moves” on the child.

The baby suffered a skull fracture and internal injuries. He later died in a Texas hospital.

According to a KFOX-TV report, the suspect, Marvin Rex Lake, was babysitting the child, Ahren Joshua DeHart, and two other children at an El Paso home when the incident took place. The two other children also had injuries, but they were not life-threatening.

According to a police affidavit, the child was in “good health and alert” at around 5 p.m. local time on April 13, according to a video chat between Lake, the baby, and the baby’s parents. But less than five hours later, Lake called the baby’s parents to tell them that the child “rag-dolled” and vomited a red substance.

The child’s parents, who are a labor and delivery department worker at a local hospital and a member of the U.S. military, returned to the home and called paramedics. The baby was taken to a hospital with various injuries that authorities say were “non-accidental.”

The baby suffered brain damage, a skull fracture, lung hemorrhaging, and abdominal injuries. The child died on Friday, several days after the incident after being on life support.

Lake told investigators that he and the child were sitting on his futon and watching television when he attempted “several wrestling-style moves” on the baby. During what he said was roughhousing, the child fell against the frame of the futon. Lake also admitted that he was upset at the child for ripping a pillow, and responded by holding the boy tightly. He said he did not realize his own strength at the time.

“I did not hurt his head. I only caused the internal injuries,” he told authorities.

According to reports, Lake asked about receiving financial compensation for damage to his futon frame.

He remains in custody at the El Paso County Detention Facility, where he is being held without bond.

  1. Of course, because of white privilege officials investigating the crime, and BLM, he won’t be charged with the murder of a one-year-old child and will receive reimbursement for the child’s vicious attack and damage he calls to the futon…

  2. What kind of parents would leave their child with this thing. They are as much to blame as this moron.

  3. This is heartbreaking. The babysitter does not sound emotionally stable. The parents must be shocked and heartbroken. It’s a tragedy all the way around.

  4. After the “trial” of police officer Derek Chauvin, I am sure that the nanny of one year old child, Marvin Rex Lake, will be released by a “trial”, with an acquittal – “homicide as a result of self-defense.” So, as in the beginning, the murder by the ochlocracy of the entire judicial system of America took place.

  5. This is TO MUCH !!!These children are being killed on purpose..Who in their right mind would let a person like this watch their babies.And what injuries did the other children have ??What ? Time the other groups take a stand on this crap !!!

  6. I knew these child’s parents. It’s so sad that their baby boy had to suffer this. Parents need to be careful who they leave their children with

  7. I do not imagine that caucasian people will riot, loot and burn buildings down. Had the races been reversed it would be a travesty.
    My prayers and sympathy for the parents. But did they know this man well enough to leave him in charge of their precious children???

  8. He will get 18 months , time served. Be let loose on society. TO DO IT AFAIN AGSIN AND AGSIN. FACTS SAYS UT ALL. . HE NEEDS INCARCERSTION FOR LIFE,5X,8. CELL, HOLE IN THE CORNER,BREAD AND WATER.
    WE HAVE PATHOLOGICAL KILLERS, GETTING GOV. HANDOUTS, WHO HAVE KILLED INNOCENTS, WE HAVE NO LAW, . ITS CARNAGE, AND WHEN YOU CONVICT A HUMAN FIR UPHOLDING THE LAW OR STOPPING THE LAWLESS,. ITS PROOF OF A DECAYING CITIZENRY. DEMOCRATS ARE THE SYSTEMIC ROT

  9. He’s black, the baby’s white it was probably racialy motivated, these days with everything that’s going on, I would not dought it.

  10. Another lesson in stupid people making stupid decisions. There’s absolutely no way I’d leave my child with this piece of human garbage. Another idiotic woke thought process. I think I’ll leave my precious baby with a 26 year old male loser that should be working not babysitting. Unbelievable how ignorant people can be. And once again the innocent child pays for the moronic parents belief that everyone no matter how they look is a great person. Sickens me to the core. Clearly this is human garbage not only evidenced by the results but moreover he asked for compensation for his damaged futon. No need to worry about your furniture as Bubba has a real nice surprise waiting for you. But then again it’s California and he’s just misunderstood. Give him a check and apologize for being white

  11. If this man gets out and justice is not served I’m gonna fuck everybody up including the ones that allow him to leave and not be charged for murder and that poor little white baby All lives matter except for that sick fuck dick murdered that baby who is abusing those kids just as better be fucking served

  12. The babysitter is probably a child of the Obama. As the Obama’s always saw he could have been the so. We never had!! He sounds like an Obama I want to be paid for my broken futon. Obama is busy today since nobody is buying the book he says he wrote which is very doubtful, as we all know Dreams of my fathers was Barack bulls it which he said he authored which was BS both his and Michelle’s books are not sell, I think Americans are smart enough to know both there books are bullshit🖕🏾Between the 2obama assholes they can compose a sentence let alone a book, they are illiterates and embeciles. As they say they are educated, this is just a wish they are dumber than a ROCK. Yes, Obama should be coming soon to the baby killers defense soon

  13. Why would white parents ever leave their beautiful little child with a low life black especially this garbage. Why ask them. Blacks do not BABYSIT whites. They are stupid and dangerous. Someone tell me why the white parents did this, they in essence killed their own child. Where are the white babysitters
