More details released on death of 5 year old anniston boy



More details are emerging involving last Fridays death of a 5 year old Anniston boy.  Calhoun County District Attorney Brian McVeigh says 5-year-old Gregory Caver was murdered in Anniston after he wet his pants. McVeigh said that the boy was severely beaten with a belt by Vonta McClellan.    Caver's mother, 28-year-old India Kimble, and her 26-year-old boyfriend, Vonta McClellan, have both been charged with capital murder in connection with the boy's death. Kimble was arrested in Mobile Tuesday by US Marshals and has since been transported back to Anniston.  Investigators say McClellan used a belt to beat little Gregory into unconsciousness on the morning of July 26, ultimately causing his death at Children's of Alabama later that day. According to McVeigh, Kimble allegedly verbally accosted her son during his beating, hence her arrest for murder.   McClellan is also accused of striking his 7-year-old daughter with the same belt used to beat Caver. He was arrested on child abuse charges prior to being charged with murder.  McVeigh says Kimble had other children present at the time of the incident, but they were physically unharmed.  Investigators are asking anyone with any additional information about previous incidents of abuse involving McClellan or Kimble to contact the Anniston Police Department or the Calhoun County District Attorney's Office.
