Police released horrific new details Friday on how they believe three-year-old Jaquinn Brewton died, and they say it was no accident.
Police now say the child was murdered through long-term physical abuse allegedly at the hands of his godmother, 22-year-old Nadera Batson and her 23-year-old boyfriend, Marcus King. They believe King, a 6' 8", 225-pound man, kicked and punched the little boy over a period of time.
