SAN ANTONIO -- A 20-year-old San Antonio man is facing charges after police say he abused a 4-month-old baby.

According to an arrest warrant affidavit, Matthew Taylor Mays is responsible for fracturing the baby's skull and breaking both of his legs on September 13th. The affidavit states Mays first said the baby had fallen off the bed. He later claimed he had dropped the baby on the kitchen floor while preparing a bottle for the child. However, a doctor told police the child's injuries were not consistent with a fall but were highly consistent with abuse such as swinging or yanking the baby.

Mays was arrested Tuesday and is in the Bexar County Jail.

How about fracturing his skull and breaking both his legs and then castrate him.

I wouldn't trust a 20 year old BOY to take care of a gold fish. If girls think a 20 year old clueless idiot can be a good father, then the mother is an idiot too.

Here's another good example to give to the gun control fanatics. If you can't stop this, you won't stop gun violence by more gun control. These acts come from a deranged mind and happen before you can do anything about it. Sadistic psychos don't need guns to carry out their evil.
