A California man arrested three years ago for brutally beating his 4-year-old daughter was found guilty on Tuesday of torture, assault, and corporal injury to a child.

Tekquan Alexander, an aspiring rapper, was arrested in November 2021 after he repeatedly and violently abused his young daughter. After sustaining days of abuse at the hands of her father, the girl was unresponsive and airlifted to Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. She was diagnosed with “traumatic injuries to her brain and spine, as well as broken bones and dozens of cuts and bruises,” according to local news outlet KTLA. The “catastrophic” injuries left her in a “vegetative state,” according to the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office.
