13 year-old Kills Brother, 8

A 13 year-old Orange County, Florida boy beat his 8 year-old brother to death over a dessert. Demetrius Key beat his brother, Levares, because the younger boy ate a dessert that he wasn't supposed to eat. Demetrius, fearing he would be blamed, beat his brother's head against the floor and hit the boy with the metal broom among other violent attacks.

The boys' mother, Tangela Key, was arrested in the incident. She has seven children and left Demetrius in charge of the children while she visited another apartment. Tangela has a less than stellar history as a parent. She initially lied to police about what happened to Levares.

The deceased boy's body bore signs of repeated physical abuse. The other children are in the care of the State. Demetrius may be charged as an adult.
