Boyfriend of Child's Mother Confesses After Baby Dies of Shaken Baby Syndrome

A 39-year-old man from Hollywood, FL, recently confessed to shaking his girlfriend's 11-month-old baby to death in June 2009, according to the Orlando Sentinel.  According to police, Cecil Weekes has been charged with murder in connection with the incident of shaken baby syndrome that occurred three days before young Angeliah Duncan's death.  Weekes and the baby's mother were reportedly home when the child began to cry uncontrollably, leading to the Hollywood man's frustration and the tragic incident.  Angeliah was pronounced dead June 15th at Memorial Regional Hospital, and an autopsy confirmed that her fatality was a result of shaken baby syndrome.
