Caleb Blake Brown, 17-years-old has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of his son, Emerson Ziesmer, News Channel 8 reports.
The incident occurred in Carrolton, Texas on August 9, when Brown was allegedly left alone briefly with the infant.
Afterwards, Brown and the baby’s mother, Rachel Ziesmer, took Emerson to the emergency room after police said that Rachel noticed the infant was “pale and had significant bruising around his abdomen.”
Emerson was subsequently transferred to Children’s Medical Center of Dallas but tragically passed away from his injuries.
An autopsy indicated that Emerson had a lacerated liver, several misplaced ribs and an abrasion on the back of his head.

According to Brown’s probable cause affidavit, investigators learned from cell phones and social media records that Brown was angry with the baby’s mother “for not aborting [the baby] or putting him up for adoption.”
