Kelci Devine Lewis, aged one, was battered to death because she would not stop crying when the children were left home alone.
The boy is charged with murdering one-year-old Kelci Devine Lewis to death last month because she would not stop crying, police said.
The boy, who has not been identified, is in the care of Alabama state's child welfare agency, said Lieutenant Sean
Edwards, Birmingham police spokesman.
This is by far one of the saddest cases that I've witnessed since I became a police officer," Edwards said during a news conference.
Edwards said the little boy got "extremely agitated" because the baby refused to stop crying, and committed "violent acts."
The child was found dead in her cot the next morning, on October 11.
The baby's mother, Katerra Lewis, 26, has been charged with manslaughter.
