Man Arrested for Allegedly Killing Stepson Over Bed-Wetting Incident
A 29-year-old man, Jeremy Bosman, has been arrested and charged with murder in connection with the death of his three-year-old stepson, Charvandre Kieran Everson. The incident reportedly arose from Bosman’s violent response to the child wetting his bed.
According to Mojalefa Senokoatsane, a spokesperson for the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) in the Northern Cape, South Africa, the alleged abuse occurred on October 19, when Bosman discovered that Charvandre had urinated in bed.
Witnesses and preliminary investigations suggest Bosman reacted by repeatedly hitting the child on the head with his hands, using a broom to strike him, and slamming his head against a wall. These actions reportedly left Charvandre unable to eat or open his mouth properly.
In a second incident, Bosman allegedly attacked the child again following another bed-wetting episode, reportedly resulting in blood in Charvandre’s mouth and loss of control over his bodily functions.
Reports indicate that the child was left weakened and unable to move his legs. Bosman then allegedly instructed the child’s mother to remain silent about the incidents before taking Charvandre to De Aar New Hospital.
Tragically, by the time they arrived, medical personnel determined that Charvandre had already succumbed to his injuries.
Hospital staff noted multiple bruises on Charvandre’s body, particularly on his back, and alerted authorities, which led to Bosman’s arrest. He faces charges of murder and assault, while police continue their investigation.
Bosman will remain in custody until his court appearance on November 1, when he is expected to formally apply for bail. The NPA has announced its intention to oppose bail due to the severity of the charges.
Senokoatsane stated that the prosecution team is dedicated to ensuring justice is served, highlighting the case’s seriousness in the context of domestic violence and child abuse.
