Nearly five months after he was beaten to death and dumped into the Des Plaines River, a funeral was held Friday for 1-year-old Bryeon Hunter.
Bryeon's mother, Lakeshia Baker, 22, told investigators that she and her boyfriend, Michael Scott, beat her son with a belt and plastic clothes hangers April 15 before leaving him to die on the bathroom floor of their Maywood apartment, prosecutors have said.
Initially, Baker had claimed that Bryeon had been kidnapped by three men, resulting in an Amber Alert being issued by police, but Baker and Scott's story unraveled as they were interviewed by police over subsequent days, and they were charged with his murder the same week.

Look at Bryeon in November.........seems happy and carefree, its' just a grin, but you can see a little joy in his eyes, right?

And why am I rehashing this ? I can't answer. I love this little boy and the lost, dull, joyless look on his face tells the whole story
I will pray LE , DA and the jury in his case have the wisdom and evidence to lock up the evil. I will even pray that the evil have a reckoning with what they've done and feel true remorse and sorrow for his little life . Then I will pray that the horror of their deeds never give them a moment of sleep again ! AMEN!
Here are three pics but I wish they were embedded in the post.
