A six-year-old boy was found found dead under the floorboards at home after being "drowned in a toilet as punishment" by his mum s boyfriend.
Blu Rolland, from Arkansas, US, died three months ago at his family home in Moro, 70 miles west of Memphis, Tennessee, but his body was only discovered last Friday.
In new documents submitted to Lee County Circuit Court, it is claimed the 28-year-old Ashley Rolland mum told police her boyfriend, Nathan Bridges, allegedly killed her son.
She told officers Bridges held her son s head in a toilet bowl as "punishment" for biting his finger.
The revelation comes after Rolland told police on Saturday her son died in an alleged drowning on September 9.
The mum has since been charged with capital murder, abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence, endangering the welfare of a minor, and two counts of permitting child abuse.
