WILLOW GROVE, Pa. (WTXF) - A Montgomery County mother and her boyfriend have been charged in the death of her 4-year-old little boy, according to authorities.
Sadness hung over the 1800 block of Lukens Avenue in Willow Grove Tuesday night as a neighborhood came to grips with the death of 4-year-old Tahjir Smith and the arrest of his mother and her boyfriend.
Investigators say 19-year-old Lisa Smith and 26-year-old Keiff King stand charged for now with attempted murder, aggravated assault and other crimes in the beating death of little Tahjir after he spilled his breakfast cereal at their home, which police described as deplorable and crawling with roaches.
"Severely punished and beaten and then burned in a shower," Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele said.

again.
Mommy’s new boyfriend is always the most dangerous thing for a child.
More sad black dysfunction.
The most dangerous place for a child is with mommy’s new boyfriend.
Their not his children.
Its always “the boyfriend.”
Just a delayed abortion . . . nothing to see here . . . move on!
These women are stupid.
So, is the boy dead or not?
Did they attempt to kill the boy or succeed?
That is one of the most heart breaking things I have read in a long time.
I just said a prayer for Tahjir Smith - I pray that he was accepted in to heaven with open arms and nothing but unconditional love.
This happens too often especially with poor women in desperate need of someone to provide for them. But I know many stepdads who take the children and love them as his own. Usually the mom has plenty of time to find a decent man, though.
Too bad for her that she didn’t murder the child while he was in her womb. She would have been hailed a hero for women’s rights instead of facing a lifetime in the pokey.
It’s damnable evil, not “black dysfunction”.
I hope they will make an adoption plan for this woman’s unborn child.
Love saves lives.
Lord, take that baby up in your arms and love him forever and forever.
There are plenty of whites as well. Remember Mariah Woods?
The mother is 19 and the child was 4?
the attempt clearly killed him. So it must be the boy was killed while they attemped murder. See? That clears it up.
What a cute little boy, making my eyes water.
[Before you ask,Yes Mommy’s new boyfriend]
Well, my first question was if these were Dindu Nuffins... but after opening the FR post and seeing their names, my question was answered....
