Gulledge was charged with neglect, aggravated child abuse, and domestic assault while the boy's mother, Katrina Johnson, was charged with aggravated child abuse for not doing enough to stop the beating and for not seeking medical attention for her son until the next day, according to WREG-TV.
The boy was originally taken to a Germantown, Tennessee, hospital before being transferred to Le Bonheur Children's Hospital in Memphis.
He was listed in critical condition on Monday with a dislocated vertebrae and a broken femur. The Commercial Appeal reported that the boy also has numerous bruises, including on his lungs.

Only if they agreed the sterilization procedure must be irreversible.
