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.
Gulledge had been arrested twice before on charges of beating the boy's mother, whom he has had a 10-year relationship with.

The mother’s sister (very scared of him but he wouldn’t hurt a baby...):
“I just wouldn’t expect him to hurt the baby like that; this baby could have died,” Scott said. “I know my sister wouldn’t do anything to hurt her child. She wouldn’t, but I know that she’s afraid of her boyfriend, and that’s the only reason she didn’t try to defend the baby like she wanted to. She’s very afraid of him, I know she is.”

Urgent: Should Obamacare Be Repealed? Vote Here Now!
If she is afraid of the guy, why is he her boyfriend??
And yet, through all of this needless cruelty, the mother of this child remained with this man, even after he choked her while she was pregnant last summer. Sad and sick, the both of them. We need to incorporate making certain criminals sterile, as shocking as that may sound. He’s too mean and dumb, while she is too weak and dumb.
Mommy’s boyfriend is one of the most dangerous animals alive.
Perhaps between selling drugs and robbing liquor stores he was a good provider.
All he deserves is a hole in the ground and a box of quicklime.
It’s likely that Gulledge is getting regular beat-downs in jail.
Even jail inmates don’t have much patience for child abusers.

lock him up and no dessert for life
Indeed. Any child abuse cases I see now are nearly always involve such fluid "living arrangements."
Yeah actually we do.
Unfortunately there are enough child beating mf’s around that he could be red headed or blond or something else.
He’s in big trouble in the cellblock and then after...
I do not understand these people. Is a warm body in your bed worth your child?
“If she is afraid of the guy, why is he her boyfriend??”
Because he said he loved her and promised not to hurt her again.
Women who stay with abusers are just as bad especially if there are children involved.
Gee Brain, what are we going to do tonight??
The same thing we do every night... I beat you up and then tell you I love you and I’ll never do that again...

I find it interesting that he has had a “relationship” with her for 10 years, but nowhere does it call him the father of the three year old. Either she refused to name him as the father so they wouldn’t go after him for support, or someone else is the kid’s dad, which may be partly why this scumbag did it.
