A 28 year old father Steven Deuman Jr has been sentenced to 2 life terms
in prison for causing the death of his 3 months old daughter while he
was oral raping her. In August 2011, Deuman's infant daughter, Evelynne
Deuman, was found dead with a condom in her mouth. Deuman said he had
stepped outside to smoke only to return and find their daughter on the
floor bleeding from the nose, unconscious and not breathing with the
discarded condom in her mouth.
Instead of calling 911 for help,
he called the girl’s mother, Natasha Maitland, and told her their baby
wasn’t breathing. A call to 911 was not made until after Maitland drove
back home from work. Instead of waiting for an ambulance, they attempted
to drive to the hospital, but were met by responding paramedics who
tried to revive Evelynne before rushing her to the hospital.
But, according to prosecutors, Evelynne had been dead for far too long.
It
wasn’t until later that Deuman allegedly whispered to Maitland that he
had pulled the used condom out of their daughter’s mouth. Subsequent
tests showed the DNA on the outside of the condom belonged to the baby
and on the inside belonged to Deuman.
The FBI alleged Deuman
killed the girl during a penetration, or attempted penetration of
aggravated sexual abuse and an autopsy showed no evidence that the girl
fell but determined that she died of asphyxiation.
