Oct. 10, 2024 – The baby weighed less than 4.5 pounds and had a gray skin tone, a “severe festering diaper rash” and infections in his mouth, eyes and thumb, according to a probable cause affidavit. Police said they also found a baggie with fentanyl next to the baby’s pacifier.

Davis said the boy hadn’t eaten for days and knew he was losing weight, the affidavit said. uesday, police arrested Davis and Orescan, both 34, on allegations of first-degree criminal mistreatment and fentanyl possession. Davis also was charged with first- and second-degree assault, supplying contraband and cocaine possession. The last two charges appear to be related to the alleged discovery of drugs that a deputy at the Jackson County Jail said Davis hid in her body and bra. Davis remained in jail Friday in lieu of $500,000 bail, while Orescan was released from jail due to overcrowding.
