While continuing lifesaving measures, the Fire Department transported the child to a medical vehicle. Once inside the vehicle, a firefighter re-positioned the baby’s head and noticed that it appeared to be very soft in the rear skull area.

Upon conducting the internal examination, the Medical Examiner determined that the baby died as a result of blunt force trauma to the head and determined the manner of death to be a homicide.

At the time of the incident, the man admitted that he lied to hospital personnel about how he got hurt, the complaint reads.

On June 12, police say Kaydo again got violent with the man after they’d “been drinking some,” hitting him over the head. Then, on Friday, the man reported that Kaydo attacked his wife while she sat in the living room watching television. Kaydo yelled at her for taking all his father’s money and putting the family in debt while hitting her repeatedly in the face and body.

Kaydo remains in the Racine County Jail on a $5,000 cash bond with conditions that he not contact the man and woman and he not consume or possess any alcohol. His preliminary hearing is June 26.
