The boyfriend, who was described as anti-social and violent, is in police custody. Family members said the boyfriend two weeks ago severely beat a dog for relieving himself in the home. They said they're in shock that a grown man could take out so much anger on a child.
"I just can't understand how anybody could do that,"?said Santiago Valdez, the boy's great-grandfather. "I just can't. It's just a shock to me."
