The 21 year old mother is in jail, and the child in protective custody.
Police say a ‘deviant’ 5-year-old boy viciously beat his disabled grandmother with several items–including her walker–and then urinated on her back when she tried to escape!The boy’s mother, Jessica Hatcher, was arrested on child neglect and incapacitated adult abuse charges because she sat on the couch and watched television while her 58-year old mother, Alice F. Hatch was beaten in their Jackson County, West Virginia trailer, reports .According to reports, the victim, who suffers from kidney failure, pneumonia and uses a wheelchair and walking aid, told officers how the child began a tantrum earlier that morning, stemming from “simple parenting-type issues.”Alice says things quickly turned physical when he grabbed her walker and began striking her with it, reports . He then slapped her and spit in her face. She then tried to protect herself using a cane, but the boy disarmed her and began beating her with it.This all unfolded as the boy’s mother, Jessica, sat only feet away and ignored her mother’s cries for help because was too engrossed in watching a television program. She told the victim she “can’t do anything with him,” reports .The grandmother managed to elude the child and locked herself in a bedroom. But he soon found her and began punching and kicking holes through the door until it gave way and he gained entry. Then he hit her with an aerosol can, she says.The victim says she got into her wheelchair, exited the home and planned to lock herself in a car, but the boy caught up with her again and knocked her to the ground wielding a mop. That’s when he stood on top of her and urinated on her back, according to reports.She eventually managed to call 911.When deputies arrived, the child’s mother admitted that there was an argument but didn‘t believe anything inappropriate occurred, citing her mother and son “just don’t click anymore.” She added that parenting “was a burden in general.” The child is now in custody of a family member who does not live in the home.
