GILBERT, Ariz. - A father is behind bars, accused of squeezing his 2-year-old son so hard -- he stopped breathing.
Last Wednesday evening, authorities were called to the InnTown Suites near
Guadalupe and Country Club to investigate a report of a child not
breathing.
When they arrived at the scene, they found the boy to
be unresponsive. He was taken to Cardon Children's Hospital where he
was pronounced deceased.
Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies say
25-year-old Jonathan Cole killed his child out of frustration and even
admitted his son struggled a few times to break free of him.
According
to MCSO, Cole says he squeezed his young son's chest even harder until
he stopped breathing and didn't call 911 until an hour and a half later.
"It
is the state's understanding that the defendant squeezed the life out
of his 2- year-old son with his bare hands," said Stephanie Lowe of the
Maricopa County Attorney's office. "The defendant indicated that he did
this out of some either real or percieved ongoing argument with his
wife. In fact he wrote her a letter and told her the reason he did this
is because he was angry with her."
At first, when Cole was questioned about his son's death, he asked investigators if a stuffed animal could cause suffocation.
When pressed further on the matter, investigators say Cole told them he wanted to go to jail.
Cole
was arrested and booked into the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office jail.
He faces first-degree murder and child abuse charges.
The boy’s autopsy was scheduled for last Thursday.

Very sad case indeed. I went to school with the mother and father. I'm really close friends with the mother of the child. When I heard the news I shocked and stunned that Jonathon did such a thing but then again who can predict such terrible things. RIP Alex <3

@ Lloyd...it is so sad to hear stories like this. Until I found this site, I didn't realize what an epidemic child abuse is. About 5 children die every day from child abuse at the hands of their own parents, step parents or boy or girl friends. It's so hard to stop because it happens behind closed doors.
This case is especially shocking because it appears the father killed his son to get back at the mother. I can't imagine her pain. I just hope that justice is served and Jonathan Cole is never allowed to hurt another person.

He did do it to get back at her and he was abusing the poor baby while she was at work. She is heartbroken but taking it day by day, what else can she do?
