CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. - A mother and her boyfriend have been charged with abusing a 6-year-old child who was hospitalized from the severe beatings, according to Clayton County Police.

Officials say the little boy is in critical condition, suffering from broken bones, blood clots in his lung and bleeding on the brain. At one point, they believe he fell unconscious.

FOX 5 Atlanta was the only crew present as officers took the mother, Porche Wells, into custody.

Clayton County police say Wells' boyfriend, Napoleon Ates, accused the 6-year-old of stealing money over the weekend. They tell FOX 5 the boyfriend physically abused the child for days as his mother stood by and watched. At a point, police say the boyfriend told the mom to leave the room.

By Sunday, police say the boy fell unconscious, and the mom tried to give him an ice bath.

On Monday and Tuesday, police tell FOX 5 the mother went to work and got her nails and feet done while her child suffered at home. Eventually, she took him to an area hospital where police were notified.

Wells and Ates are now facing child abuse charges. The mom faces additional charges for lying to the police.

FOX 5 was the only crew there to witness the mother, Porche Wells, be taken into custody. Clayton County police say Wells' boyfriend accused her 6-year-old son of stealing money and beat him senselessly for days while his mother stood and watched.

BBM because 1) WHY DO THESE ABUSERS ALWAYS TRY TO GIVE THE CHILDREN AN ICE BATH??? WHAT SORCERY DO THEY THINK THIS DOES TO "CURE" THE DAMAGE THEY HAVE DONE???? and 2) she got her nails did. While her child lay suffering near death at home after the magical ice bath didn't restore him????

Mother of severely beaten 6-year-old Clayton County boy appears in court
Porshe Wells, 33, is facing multiple charges, including cruelty to children in the 1st degree and cruelty to children in the 3rd degree; contributing to deprivation of a minor; making a false statement; battery family violence; aggravated battery; and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Wells received bond for each charge in amounts ranging from $2,000 to $8,000 with the exception of the aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge for which she did not receive bond.

Police say that Wells' boyfriend Napoleon Ates, 36, accused the young boy of stealing $80 over the weekend. The boyfriend then began abusing the child for days as his mother allegedly stood by and watched.
 
savages.

This boy has suffered so badly for so long (3 days of beatings). I hope he can pull through but then, what a road ahead... Positively maddening and heartbreaking. People forget what it is like to be a kid of 6 years old once we grow up.

I hope we can get his name and post it soon.
 
These beings make me sick. And it seems to be getting worse. Every single day, there seems to be a new thread about little people. These threads shouldn't exist. These cases shouldn't be happening. It's just wrong.

Praying that the young boy pulls through - how frightened and confused he must have been, with his "mother" just standing by and doing nothing. That is heart shattering to think about. :(

Moo

from the article:

Wells is due back in court at 8:30 a.m. July 3 for a preliminary hearing and on July 7 for a bond hearing.


will be following this case... :(
 
He reportedly allegedly took the $80 to give to "the family's roommate".

So yeah, I'd want to flesh that out a bit. Ya know, to fill the time while he is being treated in hospital and mom is in custody.

Sometimes levity or flippant comments are all the tools we have at the moment. I can't stop thinking about this kiddo.
 
Ates is not in the court systems for these charges.

It does not have the next court date - but that is 7/3/23 for preliminary hearing & bond hearing on 7/7/23.
 
Looks like Ates - has more felony cruelty to children charges from January, 2023 & I believe they are continuing these charges with the new ones since they have his arrest on 6/7/23 for this little boy's case.

Male reporter @ 1:30 mark on the video:

She didn't answer any of our questions. I asked her if she had any remorse or anything like that. I can tell you her nails look freshly done, her feet look freshly done, they'll go with the handcuffs and the jumpsuit at the Clayton County Jail
Police: Mom watched boyfriend beat up child
(I had to smile at the dig he threw in there)

I hope this 6 year old little boy somehow manages to fully recover. I'll be thinking of him.
