An infant boy injured during an argument between his parents earlier this week has died.
The Jefferson County Coroner's Office on Friday identified the boy as D'Mario Hall. He was 2 months and 24 days old.
D'Mario's mother, 31-year-old Ratunda Smith, is charged with aggravated child abuse. Authorities said the boy's father was holding the baby when Smith fought him and caused him to drop the baby onto the concrete floor. She then picked up D'Mario by his clothing and shook him and swung him, according to an affidavit in the case.
D'Mario suffered a fractured skull, bleeding on the brain and retinal damage.
The father has not been charged with any crime. Dyer said both parents are deaf and an interpreter has been used to help with the investigation.
I would love to that on video! :lmao
