Police announced Friday that a 10-year-old boy, the victim of “unimaginable abuse and neglect,” has died after lingering for weeks in critical condition. For now, his mother, Kimberley Mills, 37, and her boyfriend, Andre Walker, 36, remain at a jail for a child abuse case in Lake County, Florida, but officers said they are working with prosecutors to enhance charges. Officers identified the son as Xavier Williams, 10.

As Law&Crime previously reported, Mills and Walker showed up with the unresponsive child at Advent Health Waterman hospital at around 10 p.m. the night of Feb. 22. He was not breathing, and he had been suffering from burns, bruises, and other injuries in various stages of healing, officers said.

Mills was doing CPR, Walker had run inside to alert staff for help, and nurses immediately started providing aid, cops said. The couple allegedly left the scene after learning law enforcement was on the way.
