According to an arrest warrant affidavit, Williams later admitted to hitting the little boy in the head and abdomen with a closed fist on the day that he died. She also admitted the physical abuse happened on a daily basis.
Williams is charged with causing serious bodily injury to the child. Those charges could be upgraded.
Police have not yet said how Ulysses Kizzee is related to Zamaurian Kizzee, but records from a domestic violence incident at the home earlier this year state he and Williams have been in a dating relationship for the past 9 years.
Child Protective Services said it does have a history with the family.
Five other children – ages 7, 6, 3, 1 and 3-months – were removed from the home and placed in foster care, CPS said.
