Two Augusta parents have been charged with murder, for the death of their 1-year-old son, Travis Scott.
Salena Tyler-Scott and her husband Tyrone Scott, are accused of repeatedly turning off their child’s ventilator, which investigators say led to his death.
The parents were arrested last Tuesday and are charged with murder and cruelty to children.
Bond was set at $50,000 for Tyrone Scott on a murder charge and $10,000 for a child cruelty charge.
Their son died at Augusta University Medical Center on Feb. 13.
The Coroner’s report says, Travis Scott died after emergency medical crews had taken the child to the hospital from the family home in the 1900 block of Watkins Street.
