On April 5, 2017, a concerned resident of an apartment building in Braham, Minnesota called 911 after hearing screaming from the apartment below. When police responded, they found 2-month-old Eli Arispe Hentges dead in his playpen. Eli’s mother, 24-year-old Shy Ann Hentges, was interviewed by investigators, but her story changed when Eli’s autopsy revealed his tiny skull had been fractured.

This is the story of a baby born into less-than-optimal circumstances. It’s also the story of a young mother whose temper, exacerbated by her abuse of drugs and alcohol, led to the violent death of her own infant son.

This is the tragic story of Eli Arispe Hentges.
