Authorities claim a Florida mother killed her 6-year-old child in a bizarre attempt to banish “demons” from his physique. Nearly two weeks later, the boy’s rotting remains were discovered lying in his sleep. After police found the child’s brain at the family’s home on Bedford Drive in Fort Pierce, Rhonda Paulynice, 41, was taken into custody on Friday. The boy’s absence for more than two days was revealed after school officials made the discovery, which led to a security test. At a media event, St. Lucie County judge Richard Del Toro stated,” She believes she was being told by God to fundamentally banish demons out of the child’s body.” Paulynice reportedly never sought medical support and rather waited for the baby to” come back,” believing that he had been spiritually cleansed when the child stopped moving and basically passed away. An autopsy is still pending on the boy’s death’s produce and time. Authorities believe the child may have passed away on May 18, the day after deputies last visited the home to look into a noted medical condition but discovered no imminent danger. Paulynice reportedly posted a number of enigmatic and religious messages on social media days after her son’s death, giving the impression that she was getting even further delusional. During their research, she exhibited erratic behavior that they changed between laughing and crying as they searched the house. Being a caregiver and witnessing a 6-year-old child who was killed for no other reason than by a pure bad person, is difficult, according to judge Del Toro. Since January, authorities have responded to the house numerous times for private disruptions involving Paulynice and her girl, despite the fact that the child had never been directly involved in those occurrences. Paulynice is currently facing charges of altering a figure, second-degree death, and failing to report a death. The St. Lucie County Jail is where she is currently.
