A couple in Memphis, Tennessee is behind bars for allegedly abusing the woman’s 3-month-old daughter to the point that she remains hospitalized.

Billy Sanders said to WHBQ that his daughter Albreelynn is clinging to life after her mother’s boyfriend threw her against a wall.

“She didn’t do anything to stop it, and basically told the roommate to back off,” Sanders told the news station.

WREG reported he took the girl to the hospital sometime in December and that she’s is currently in the state’s custody.

He also revealed that the infant has undergone two surgeries and that doctors believe she’s been harmed before.

“She had old blood and new blood on her head which indicated this wasn’t the first time this happened,” Sanders said. “Stitches all across her head, her poor little head is shaved and she has bruises on her arms and legs.”

The outraged father also told WMC-TV that there’s a “50/50 chance”

that Albreelynn will sadly never be able to walk or talk.

“I mean she’s 3 months old. She ain’t got to see the first thing in life, and now if she can focus that much, she has to be pushed around in a wheelchair her whole life.”

Despite the grim prognosis, Billy said his daughter is breathing on her own, opening her eyes, and moving her arms around.

The baby’s mother, McKenzie Flanigan, and her boyfriend Cody Brown have been arrested in connection with the alleged abuse.

WREG reported that Brown is facing felony child abuse charges while Flanigan is accused of being an accessory after the fact.

Brown and Flanigan are currently being held on $100,000 and $25,000 bonds, respectively.

Sanders claimed to have never met Brown but believed that Flanigan had been dating him for about a month and a half.

The infant’s father also said that he’s been fighting the Department of Children and Families for visitation privileges.

He told reporters that he hopes to gain full custody of his daughter–who will likely need round-the-clock care for the rest of her life.

“They might not have killed her, but I mean they took her life every way it went,”  he said.

Police Are On Manhunt For Parents Of 4-Year-Old Who Died From Serious Burns

Police are currently searching for the parents of a 4-year-old Sumpter Township girl who died on Monday after being found with severe burns.

Police said that the home where the girl was found with serious scald wounds was full of animal waste and it contained guns and drugs.

The girl was found about 10:43 a.m. at the Rawsonville Woods Mobile Home community on Greenmeadow Drive.

Police found the girl unresponsive with “obvious” severe burns on her arms and legs. Family members were administering CPR.

The girl was taken to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor, where she was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Police records indicate that the incident isn’t the first time they’ve had trouble at the home.

On May 20, 2016, officers stormed the house following a report of a barricaded gunman after a domestic assault.

The girl’s mother said to police that her boyfriend had beat her, shot her dog and shot himself in a suicidal outburst.

Police said the man then fled the home and was later arrested on domestic violence charges.

The woman reportedly claimed she owned weapons that had been confiscated, including one that had the serial number filed off it. She pleaded guilty to weapons charges and received probation.

As police continue to search for the child’s parents, not much information about the investigation has been released.

Child Protective Services and the Michigan State Police Forensics Unit are assisting.
