A 3-year-old Orlando boy is dead after being beaten with a plastic rod because he drank milk from a jug.
Orange County sheriff's investigators say Xavier Mokarzel-Satchel was killed by his mother's roommates, 58-year-old Callene Barton and 28-year-old Lakesha Lewis.
Court records show Xavier's mother, Brandi Mokarzel, was awakened Friday by Barton yelling at her son. Investigators say Lewis grabbed a plastic rod and repeatedly hit Xavier until the rod broke.
They say Barton then grabbed the boy and threw him. Xavier began to shake.
Mokarzel called 911 but the boy died.
Barton and Lewis are charged with first-degree murder.
Mokarzel is charged with child neglect for allegedly not reporting previous abuse by the women.
Jail records don't show if the women have attorneys.
