Hearing In Case Of Dead 4-Year-Old Postponed
Child Protective Services Opened Investigation Into Boy’s Welfare A Month Before Death
SACRAMENTO (CBS13) ― The man accused of beating his girlfriend’s four-year-old son to death earlier this week did not appear at a hearing this afternoon in the case.
Twenty-six-year-old Jonathan Lamar Perry did not attend the hearing due to “psychological conditions.” Instead, he is scheduled to appear in court tomorrow at 1:30 p.m.
The arrest comes after deputies and paramedics were called to a Sacramento home on Oakhollow Drive Monday morning where they found Jahmaurae Allen, 4, unconscious. He was taken first to Mercy San Juan Hospital, and then to UCD Medical Center, where he died. Doctors say the child had suffered massive head and internal injuries.
Perry is being held in the Sacramento County Jail without bail.
The victim’s mother is not under any suspicion.
