A 20-year-old is facing child abuse charges and now first-degree
felony murder after his 5-week-old son died.
Joshua R. Lane was arrested after his son, Deacon Lane, was
brought to Centennial Medical Center Sunday, Metro Nashville
police said. Staff at the hospital were able to get the infant
stabilized and transferred him to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital.
The baby suffered bruising, a fractured rib that was healing and
severe head trauma. He had very little brain function, police
said.
Lane allegedly told police that "he zoned out and may have
shaken the child," and said that bruising on the baby's knee was
caused by pinching. He was initially charged with two counts of
aggravated child abuse.
The infant died Tuesday afternoon. Police charged his father
with first-degree felony murder upon his death.

Don't worry Joshua. You'll get many opportunities to have a new
baby in jail. Lots of baby daddys will be putting the dress on
you.
