Thibodaux Police have charged 30-year-old Jeremiah Wright with first degree murder over the killing of Jori Lirette, his seven-year-old special needs son.

Authorities have said that Wright has confessed to killing the wheelchair-confined boy.

“According to police, Wright decapitated Lirette, and dismembered his body over the home’s kitchen sink. Police say a passerby saw Lirette’s head on the sidewalk outside the family’s home Sunday afternoon.. It was near a garbage bag with the child’s dismembered body,” WWLTV reported.

“When you have a seven-year-old child, innocent child, that’s killed, that had no way to protect himself, it’s such a shock to this community,” Thibodaux Police Captain Calvin Cooks said.

“We’re thinking there may have been some tension between them before this occurred, arguing, perhaps physical fighting, we don’t know at this time.”

4. " physical fighting" (between the adult and the wheelchair-confined child)

with a 7 year old in a wheelchair?

Don't they mean the man beat the child before killing him?

“We’re thinking there may have been some tension between them before this occurred, arguing, perhaps physical fighting, we don’t know at this time.”

how can an adult and a 7 yo child argue or physically fight?
