Boyfriend/would-be dad punches 3-month-old baby and kills him (Spanish Town, Jamaica)

ORVILLE BROWN killed his girlfriend's 3-month-old baby when he found out it wasn't "his." Do you think a DNA link really keeps kids safe from abusers? Do you think this guy would have been "safe" if the child had been "his"? Don't think so. I've seen too many cases of abusers who abuse the girlfriend's kids and "their own" kids indiscriminately. Little people are just punching bags for these guys; doesn't matter what the child's genetic profile is.

Baby punching father in court
Tuesday, 29 September 2009

The court is to decide Tuesday whether to grant bail to a 20-year old man accused of punching a three month old infant to death.

Orville Brown is scheduled to appear in the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate's Court Tuesday after being charged last Monday in connection with an incident which led to the baby's death on September 9.

He was involved in a dispute with the child's mother when she confessed that he was not the infant's father.

It is alleged that angered by the revelation, Mr. Brown used his fist to punch the baby in the face.

The child was rushed to hospital and later died.

Mr. Brown was subsequently arrested and charged.
