Little Boy Gets Beaten To Death With Hammer, While Protecting Sister From Child Abuser(Photos)

8-year-old Dante Daniels, was reportedly beaten to death with a hammer while protecting his 7-year-old sister, Danae from being abused by their mum’s ex-partner, Chaney Jr.

The criminal complaint also revealed that 23-year-old Chaney Jr used lighter fluid in the attack. Dante was declared brain dead following the attack on his 28-year-old mother, Elizabeth Salone and sister, and died six days later while his sister and mother survived.

His grandmother Monique Brown told WBRC: “Trying to save his sister from this child molester, that’s why he was beat the worst”.  Ms Brown further disclosed that her daughter will probably never see out of her left eye again, and Danae will require a tremendous amount of help.

Ms Brown wrote:

“On Friday September 1st my cousin received a devastating call a mother/grandmother wishes to never answer. She received the news her daughter Elizabeth Salone 27 years old, granddaughter seven years old and her grandson eight years old were in the hospital with life-threaten(ing) conditions.

“We are asking for any help possible due to the fact the kids need multiple surgeries along with medical bills and recovery. They will all need to go through counseling. The children will never be the same from this tragedy nor will their mother. They will be traumatized from such vicious crime. They will need to start over from the ground up. Anything helps pray, share, a small donation.”

Ms Brown referred to her dead grandson as a “hero.”

She further disclosed that: “Dante gave his heart to a four-year-old in Southern California, so a four-year-old lives because of (him).”
