Chester County District Attorney Thomas Hogan has described the killing of Scott McMillan as "an American Horror story."
"Over a three-day period… he was systematically tortured and beaten to death," Hogan said.
The boy's 31-year-old mother, Jillian Tait, and her boyfriend, Gary Fellenbaum, 23, allegedly beat the child inside their trailer home after the boy wouldn't eat his breakfast.
"He was punched in the face and in the stomach, he was scourged with a homemade whip, he was lashed with a metal rod, he was tied to a chair and beaten, he was tied upside down by his feet and beaten, his head was smashed through a wall and at the end of that he had bruises on top of bruises all over his body," Hogan said.
"Our nurses see a lot of terrible things, but when they saw his body, they wept," Hogan said. The couple also reportedly abused McMillan's older brother, 6-year-old Scott McMillian.
