The two-year-old child passed away from his injuries, not long after his mother reported the incident.
It's highly likely that the Henderson mother beat or shook the toddler to death -- or a combination of both. Sadly, cases like these are the norm -- with approximately five children in the U.S. dying in abusive incidents per week.
