The injuries, he maintained, came when his mother walked into his room and told him to get up.“He was on the top bed of his bunkbed and she attempted to pull him by his foot and drag him off the bed,” the boy’s father maintained. “When she was unable to get him off the bed, Micki walked into the bedroom and dragged him off the bed, causing him to hit the right side of his ribs and fall to the floor.”The victim said he was choked by his mother’s boyfriend while he was on the floor.
