On Wednesday, the defense’s motion to take the death penalty off the table was delayed again, according to the court hearing.
A state expert hasn’t finished the report to evaluate whether Desean Brown, the accused suspect, is seriously mentally ill as his defense claimed.
At his August trial, Brown’s lawyers filed a motion to exclude the death penalty. Now, the judge in the case will make a decision on the motion on Nov. 28.

Thanks @PommyMommy, I was looking for an update on this case today.
As an aside, I don't advocate for the DP in any case. IMO - LWOP saves the family from being endlessly re-victimized by court hearings after the fact. So go ahead, take it off the table.
Brown will never walk a public street again for the rest of his life anyway, regardless of whether he's deemed fit or not.

"I want people to know that we'll never stop trying to bring Nylo’s body home and recover Nylo for the family," Faith Burton said.
Burton is among those who searched tirelessly for Nylo in the days and weeks after Brown's arrest. She's spent time with Nylo's dad, Tonio Hughes, who attacked Brown during a court hearing this summer.
"Tonio is heartbroken. He will never be okay. Never," Burton said. "He will not heal until his son is brought home."

Kimberly Kelley, a detective for the Cincinnati Police Department told the judge it appears Nyteisha was pregnant with Desean Brown's child but then had a miscarriage. She said Brown was very upset and thought that Nyteisha killed his baby, so he was going to do something to her baby, Nylo.

"If I could look Desean Brown in the eye right now, I would say to him, 'Desean Brown, you deserve nothing less but the death penalty,'" Rodrick Lattimore said.
Brown was indicted on two counts of aggravated murder, and his attorneys are fighting to get the death penalty dismissed if convicted.
Three doctors have evaluated him.
"We have all of the reports from the doctors. We have conflicting reports," Judge Megan Shanahan said in court on Tuesday.
Prosecutors said two of the three believe Brown does not have a severe mental illness, but the third thinks he does.

He tortured them.
He enjoyed it.
He loved it.
He sang and danced and made videos of himself for weeks afterwards, I know, I watched every one of them, more than once..
2/3 ain't bad..
We often hear that prisoners like him have it hard in jail.
Do they really?
Obviously not because if it was true he'd be mincemeat by now and he's not..
Probably still making stupid tiktoks in his head, featuring himself as star.
Burn.

The competency hearing centers on whether the death penalty applies to someone in his mental state. Defense Attorney Martin Pinales, who is not affiliated with this case, said motions like these come with challenges.
"A lot of people who are convicted of any offense, whether there's a death penalty or not, have some degree of mental illness," he said. "The question is 'Is it sufficient to get over the hurdle of the person being so severely ill that they should not receive the death penalty?'"
www.wlwt.com
The judge heard from three experts who testified about Brown's mental capacity. Their opinions were mixed, but they all said he denied any involvement in the murders.

Same guy was making videos of himself dancing, drugging and narcissistically admiring himself in mirrors in the days and weeks immediately following the murders, probably while her body was still in the apartment too.
Hella bi-polar syndrome there.
more like sheer evil.
i wonder whether there will be livestreams or cameras in court?
I'd like to follow this trial closely and I completely forgot it..
thanks very much for the link and reminder.

I'll say it again- LWOP is better than the DP. Time and resources are being wasted, IMO. Put him on trial and let a jury convict him already, it's been nearly three years!!

Nearly three years after the vicious slayings of a Cincinnati mother and her 3-year-old son, a judge announced Tuesday their accused killer can face the death penalty if he’s found guilty at trial.
The suspect, Desean Brown, 23, showed no immediate reaction as Hamilton County Common Pleas Court Judge Megan Shanahan gave her decision and then immediately set his trial for Dec. 5.
Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Megan Shanahan said Desean Brown may have bipolar disorder, but it didn't affect "his capacity to exercise rational judgment … or appreciate the nature, consequences or wrongfulness of his conduct."

I thought of Nyteisha & Nylo today. Looked for a more current update, but this is the last MSM report I can find. Still pretty amazed DB is going for a jury trial given the evidence. But I guess the long wait has kept him out of a State Prison, which will be far more detrimental to his health, IYKWIM.
Last updated November 8, 2024; details of disappearance updated.
Nylo Lattimore
Details of Disappearance
Nylo was last seen in Cincinnati, Ohio on December 4, 2020. He has never been heard from again and his mother, Nyteisha Lattimore, disappeared with him. They lived on Melrose Avenue in the Walnut Hills area.At 3:30 a.m. December 12, Nyteisha's body was found inside a body bag near the Purple People Bridge on the Ohio River; she'd been stabbed to death. With her body was a Paw Patrol blanket with Nylo's blood on it. The next day, Nylo's stroller was also found in the river, near where his mother had been located.
Neighbors reported hearing the sounds of a struggle coming from Nylo and Nyteisha's apartment on December 5. Investigators believe Nyteisha was murdered that day by her boyfriend, Desean Brown. Photos of both Nyteisha and Brown are posted with this case summary. Authorities believe Brown threw Nylo from bridge into the Ohio River, still alive, on December 6, five days before he dumped Nyteisha's body.
A few days after Nyteisha's body was found, Brown was charged with murder, felonious assault, gross abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence in Nyteisha's case. He had purchased a body bag from eBay, and on December 11 he took an Uber ride with the bag to the Ohio River, telling the driver that he was moving out and the bag contained his clothes. In February 2021, Brown was also charged with Nylo's murder.
Brown is awaiting trial in both Nyteisha and Nylo's deaths. Investigators believe he killed them because he blamed Nyteisha for miscarrying his child. He could face the death penalty if convicted. Trial is set to begin in January 2025.
Nylo's body has not been located, but foul play is suspected in his case due to the circumstances involved.

DeSean Brown, 25, faced a judge Wednesday in connection with the December 2020 deaths of 3-year-old Nylo Lattimore and 29-year-old Nyteisha Lattimore, but his trial has been postponed.
Megan Shanahan, the judge assigned to Brown’s case, was elected to the Ohio Supreme Court, meaning that a new judge must oversee the proceedings.
