Cops say Tre’viance Markese Walker was frustrated that he’d lost $200 on a football game, and his girlfriend’s baby was crying. So he allegedly killed the baby. Those details are laid out in an arrest warrant. And though this child died December 7, it wasn’t until almost a week later that someone was finally arrested for the child’s murder.
Tre’viance Walker is accused of first degree murder in the baby boy’s death. Norman police tracked him down over the weekend, and had him booked into jail. “Detectives that were investigating this had some indication that he may be getting ready to skip,” said Captain Tom Easley with the Norman Police Department.
“I was just devastated for the family,” said Jimmy Shannon, who lives right next door. He says he knows Walker’s aunt and uncle, and was horrified to hear about the baby’s passing.
Court records show at first Walker “denied ever touching the little boy,” who is not his son, but the son of his current girlfriend. They state later, he admitted it was during the second half of the OU, OSU game that the baby started crying, and that he picked up the baby with “enough force to cause his neck to snap back.”
Walker stated that he “held the baby tightly against his chest gripping the back of the baby’s head with his hand” before he “dropped” the baby back into his playpen. The Norman police department says the evidence backs that up.
