More Horrible Details! Reports Say Little Boy was Kicked and Beaten to Death by His Mom's Boyfriend!
The more details become available, the more horrific this case becomes.
New details have been released in the death of a little boy that was found decomposing in an apartment with his three brothers.
The deceased little boy has been identified as 8-year-old Kendrick Lee. Previous reports have him listed as being 9-years-old but, his age has be corrected to the age he was when he was last seen alive.
Lee's mother, Gloria Williams, has been arrested with her boyfriend, Brian Coulter, and both are facing charges stemming from his murder.
Police say that Lee was allegedly kicked and beaten to death by Coulter. The couple then left Williams' other sons, Jordan Lee, 15, Trevon Lee, 10, Ja'Veon Kirklin, 7, to fend for themselves.
Williams reportedly has another child, a 17-year-old daughter, who did not live in the home.
This wasn't Williams' first run in with the law as it pertains to her children. Court documents obtained by DailyMail.com indicate that Williams was charged twice for failing to enroll her children in school.
Alief Independent School District told KTRK that in 2019 and 2020, the school district filed truancy papers against the siblings' mother because two of them were not attending school. The children were last enrolled in May 2020.
Both charges were later dismissed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Linda Smith, the grandmother of Williams' son, Ja'Veon Kirklin, says that Williams and all of the children lived with her for a time but she made Williams and the children leave when she found out Williams would have men over while she was at work.
"Looking back on it now, I think if I would have asked her, she would have let me adopt Ja'Veon. It was just a feeling I got."
Smith said she found out about what happened to her grandson and Gloria's other children from the media. 'I'll adopt all of them. I'm heartbroken to hear what happened to them and especially Kendrick."
'I regret kicking her out, I should have never done that. I've asked myself, What else have this kids gone through with all of the guys that have been in and out of her life? Were the kids molested, abused?"
That's a question that is on everyone's mind at this point. What else have these children had to endure?
A neighbor said that they never saw the younger boys, only the eldest remarking how Lee would come downstairs to receive "noodles and drinks" from Williams then run back to his apartment. That neighbor said that he would offer Lee pizza and charge his phone for him when the power was cut off in the apartment. He only became vaguely aware of Lee's siblings when he asked Lee if he enjoyed the pizza and Lee replied "We loved it".
Police revealed the couple were picked up by deputies at a public library, where they were looking up news articles about the discovery of Kendrick's remains.
Williams, 35, is charged with starving and neglecting her children and Coulter, 31, is charged with beating Kendrick to death.
