A teenage Kentucky babysitter fatally abused an 11-month-old boy, leaving the child’s stomach covered in teeth marks and stuffing his body in a couch — then concocting an elaborate tale to cover it up, cops say.
Elijah Mayes, 19, was arrested after little Grayson Walton’s tiny body was found Sept. 13 in the Cleaton home where the teen had been watching him.
Police were called to the home around 5 p.m. that day after Grayson’s father said he’d left his son in Mayes’ care while at work but that the baby was nowhere to be found when he returned.
A thorough police search of the home quickly ended with alarming results: Grayson’s body was found jammed into a couch, and his dead body was covered in bruises with what appeared to be teeth marks on his stomach, 14 News reported.
The alarming discovery upended the story Mayes had been telling police — that a family friend had picked the baby up from the home the night before.
Mayes had even shown officers supposed texts between him and that family friend — but when they found the woman, she denied taking the baby.
That led police to allege Mayes created a fake phone number and texted himself to cook up an alibi and hide whatever happened to Grayson.
Neighbors meanwhile reported seeing Mayes with Grayson at another property the night before his body was found.
The search of Grayson’s house also turned up a stash of meth police alleged belonged to Mayes.
He was charged with murder, abuse of a corpse, criminal abuse and meth possession.
Grayson’s step-grandfather was also arrested and charged with tampering with physical evidence, though it remains unclear why.

TikTok has raised a generation of sociopaths.
Meth head child killer. Spjnk
Eli having a Sad.....
.
RIP Little man.
Going for a ‘night out’ is of zero priority when it comes to providing for the safety of your children. Trust no one.
Someone hired that freak to babysit a toddler?
What the $...?
Poor sweet baby..and why the hell would the father leave his baby son alone with THAT, his picture alone I wouldnt let my niece within 2,000 feet of her
Poor child. Heartbreaking.
I once read an article by a police officer who was discussing being safe in public. Here’s one thing he said. If you need help while in a secluded location, try to approach a woman instead of a man.
There’d be much less chance of you being attacked by your “rescuer”.
Perhaps that rule should also apply to hiring a babysitter.
That poor, innocent child is with Our Savior now. How horrific and terrible that he first had to pass into the hands of that monster.
From what I can glean from the article the baby’s father knew the killer and left the baby in his care. It does not appear the killer was a hired sitter.
who would leave their baby with THAT? Lotta drug use in that circle, I suspect.
THIS is because dem lib women have CHEAPENED LIFE. Wanna talk abt Gaza genocide (MAYBE 40,000 since war began)? the REAL people committing GENICIDE are American Dem Lib WOMEN thru abortion (400,000 in ! YEAR alone according to PP) and infanticide now.
How many of those so easily aborted could have made life better for all of humanity?
This is a local story for me, if this was 100 years ago he would already be hanging in front of the court house until he rotted away.
We need to bring back drawing and quartering and burning at the stake.
I am going to predict it was Weed and the Tik-Tok Autism.
Just looking at this guy should have raised alarm bells. I wouldnt leave my baby with this psychopath.
Who’da thunk a male meth head (probably trans as well from the hairdo) wouldn’t make a good babysitter?
The old “If I cover my eyes, you can’t see me” hypothesis we all start of with. She just learned...
I hope it was accidental, for her, for the child.
I read the article ...a first...oops: he.
I think he got too frustrated and took it out on the crying child. Too immature to babysit, and too late for dad to see that.
There is so much in this story that does not make sense.
Who bites a baby?
And I know about not judging a book by the cover but a bloody knife generally does not indicate a happy children's story within.
