Donnell Coakley Jr., age 3, was murdered in Chicago on November 7, 2014. Authorities say investigators found more than 100 injuries on his body, including burn marks, a chipped tooth, signs of being bound, and a wound on his arm with exposed, severely damaged muscle. The medical examiner described parts of his body as severely traumatized.

Three relatives were charged with first-degree murder: his mother Tylesha Griffin, his father Donnell Coakley Sr., and his cousin Dominique Lott. Court filings and the investigation reported a pattern of prolonged, extreme physical abuse; Lott admitted to hitting the child with belts and an electrical cord and to stomping on him with her foot. DCFS had prior contact with Griffin in 2011 for neglect, and Donnell Jr.’s siblings were placed into protective custody under a DCFS safety plan after his death.
