Shanel Williams-Smith, 25, was charged with aggravated distribution or promotion child pornography, a 15-year felony, and using a computer to commit a crime, a 10-year felony, for the incident last June.
Two witnesses – including the boy’s father and a police officer – and the defendant broke down and wept during the preliminary examination for Derricka K. Fleming, 25, in 41B District Court in Clinton Township at which Judge Carrie Fuca bound her over to Macomb County Circuit Court on a charge of involuntary manslaughter.
Kara Hartman, special court coordinator at 41B, said she plans to display all 23 works in the court’s large meeting room and Judge Carrie Fuca’s courtroom “with the hopes of motivating and encouraging others who are struggling with either mental health issues or substance abuse.”
Despite his attorney's claim, murder defendant Stephen Freeman told sheriff's officials he was not beaten, said Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham, who said jail officials believe Freeman was beaten by two inmates in his cell.
