We've reported on this case before, when it was still in the investigation stage. Now dad RODRICUS CRAWFORD has been arrested on 2nd-degree murder charges in the death of his 1-year-old son. What Fox is "forgetting" to tell you here, is that this murder took place during Daddy's overnight visitation. Why a father with outstanding drug warrants had any custodial rights at all is not explained or questioned in the slightest. Generally speaking, it's the triumph of fathers rights--criminal daddies have all the rights, mothers and children have none. But given Fox's conservative, anti-mother bent, we don't really want to go into that, do we?

SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) - Police in Shreveport say a man has been booked with second-degree murder in connection with the death of his 1-year-old son.
Authorities have been investigating the death of Roderius Lott since Feb. 16, when authorities found the child unconscious. Officials have not released a cause of death.
The child's father, 23-year-old Rodricus Crawford, was booked later on outstanding drug warrants. He was already in jail when Thursday's second-degree murder warrant was issued.
A Shreveport police news release says Crawford's bond on the new charge at the Caddo Correctional Center is $300,000.
It was not immediately clear whether he has an attorney who could comment on the case.
