A Cumberland County father is charged with killing his baby girl.
According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, William Allen Davenport, 39, of 132 Buck Creek Road, Crossville, was indicted on one count of felony murder and one count of aggravated child abuse by the Cumberland County Grand Jury on Thursday.
On November 12, 2010, investigators say Davenport called Cumberland County 911 to report that his two-month-old daughter, Destiny Davenport, was not breathing. She was transported to Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga and died three days later.
Both medical personnel at the hospital and the autopsy indicated the infant died from abuse.
The TBI investigated Destiny's death with the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office and the 13th Judicial District Attorney General's Office.
On Thursday, Davenport was booked into the Cumberland County Jail on $750,000 bond.
