A 5-week-old infant, Kamari Whitt, was brought to a hospital in Bessemer, Alabama, on Wednesday, January 27, 2021, with severe head injuries described by medical staff as consistent with being shaken or struck. Kamari died at Children’s of Alabama and was pronounced dead on Saturday of that same week.

Investigators focused on the child’s father, Quinton Artez Arnold of Hueytown. Arnold was initially charged with aggravated child abuse; after Kamari’s death the charges were upgraded to capital murder. The injuries are reported to have occurred in the 300 block of West Lake Circle in Bessemer, and the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force took Arnold into custody in early February 2021.

What details about Kamari’s last hours or the scene at West Lake Circle might help explain how this happened to such a young infant?
