He drove his 1995 Nissan Altima to his mother's house to pick up his three-year-old son Sergay. Late on Tuesday, police found the toddler's body in a cardboard box. They said the boy may have been lured into the box with toys. The child's body was bruised on the back and the buttocks, and authorities initially said Sergay had been "violated."
