Your girlfriend was next door at the friend's house. She came back and found the unresponsive not breathing and blew. [Music] So I copper her side to the side and after that just gave up. Explain it to me just so I have a picture. >> Sunday, November 19th, 2023, Frankfurt, Kentucky. A 911 call reports a four-week old baby in critical condition inside an apartment complex. What seemed like a routine emergency response would soon uncover a history of weeks of neglect, omissions, and escalating risk that culminated in an episode so severe it placed the child's life in jeopardy.

What happened? >> I I don't even know. >> The arrival of officers and paramedics at the Juniper Hills residential complex marks the beginning of an intervention that although urgent, already carried a disturbing backdrop. A 4-week old baby in critical condition and a history of unreported domestic incidents. The environment, a home without support networks, with a teen mother dependent on an older partner under chronic stress, had created the perfect conditions for a invisible to the naked eye. But evident to those familiar with domestic violence risk patterns. >> I was sitting down and she started crying and I tried to comfort her and just kept on crying. That's all I could say. >> Were you where was she in the apartment? >> Uh she was literally on the bed. >> The baby was? >> Yes. I can show you exactly where. >> And you were with her the whole time? >> Yes, sir. >> How much are you going to drink today? I had about five beers before you guys came. You got that on me? >> Yes, I do. >> How big were those beers? You're stumbling. You have slurred speech. >> I haven't drank that much. I'm sorry, sir. She was with me the whole time. My fiance, >> she left. She left you with the kid here. Went to go do something called CPS. >> She left. She left uh me and the child and after that I don't know much I was with her the child and she started crying. I tried to comfort her and >> how did you try and comfort her? >> I try to hold her block her back and forth. >> Frederickson's intoxication was already apparent. But what most unsettles the officers is his description of how he had tried to calm his daughter's crying avoiding any mention of the injuries later confirmed by doctors. >> But nothing worked. And after that point, she called police and then you guys came. >> So the call that we got was that the baby stopped breathing. It was turning blue at some point. [Music] Did you hear what I said or? >> Yeah, I did. But I'm trying to re respond with that answer. I did. >> Upon entering the residence, officers find Aryan Frederickson, the victim's father, visibly intoxicated. His speech is slurred, his movements clumsy, and his vacant stare confirms his high level of inebriation. When asked, he explains he was alone with the baby after Helena Herbert, the victim's mother, had left and that he had tried different ways to calm her, but the crying wouldn't stop. When the officer mentions that the 911 call was about a baby found unresponsive with signs of oxygen deprivation, Frederickson appears to try and respond, but falls silent. That pause in such a critical moment alerts the officers and adds an element of unease to his behavior. >> All right, my man. You going to take a deep breath? >> Yeah. You going to put your mouth around this uh straw here like you're blowing a balloon. All right. >> Yes, sir. So, >> so this doesn't mean you're in trouble or anything. It's just >> Yeah, I understand. >> What am I going to put you in cuffs for? >> I don't know. I'm just I'm assuming. >> Why are you assuming that? >> Because you guys cops. I'm sorry. >> My job is not to just arrest people. >> I know that. And also, I'm really intoxicated. Uh what's your name, sir? Officer Katana. >> Nice to meet you. >> You, too. I'll give you fist. >> Okay. >> Got a little snipples. So, walk me through what happened again. You're in here alone with what's the baby's name? >> Her name is >> Okay. So, you're in here alone with No, I was not. My girlfriend >> Helina, she was with me in here entire time. She left briefly the room to call you guys and after that when she came back in I was holding her. >> Okay. So the initial call that we got is that your girlfriend or wife? >> Girlfriend. >> Your girlfriend was next door at the friend's house. She came back and found the baby unresponsive, not breathing and blue or began turning blue. you cuz at first you made it sound like you were alone with the baby and started crying and then she came in and tried to comfort the baby. Correct. >> Well, she started crying literally the second I started holding her and then she came in. >> Okay. So, you were alone with the baby when this all began. >> Yeah, I think. >> Okay. So, well, look, you're switching your story up on me. I'm not trying I'm not trying to hem anyone up. I just want to know what happened. There's a baby in the hospital. You know what I mean? So, I would appreciate it if you were just straight with me as to what happened and not change your story and start lying to me cuz that's when things get complicated. You know what I mean? So, we'll start over from the beginning. I want you to be honest with me and I want you to tell me exactly what happened. Can we do that? The officer reminds Frederickson that the emergency call was triggered by a baby showing severe respiratory distress, then administered a breathalyzer test, which confirmed a high blood alcohol level. His rights were read before taking a formal statement. His responses, however, were inconsistent, fragmented accounts, shifting timelines, and unanswered questions. For investigators, this reflected not only intoxication, but also an inner struggle over how much to reveal and how much to withhold. I'm sorry. >> Okay. So, let's start from the beginning. What happened? >> I kind of handle the situation and I try to do the best I can. And >> so, what what do you mean? How'd you try and handle a situation? I understand. Baby's a rough girl. >> I tried to comfort her. I tried to hold her but she kept on crying and >> Okay. What happened after you weren't able to comfort her? became unable to comfort her. >> Okay. So, what else did you try? >> I rock her back and forth and cry. >> So, when you got frustrated and started panicking, what'd you do? >> I just put her on a bed and just call her cry out. >> Okay. What caused her to stop breathing at one point? >> I don't know. >> I feel like you're leaving some out. Like I said, I ain't trying to he anyone up. I understand baby. I mean, crying babies. I mean, >> for sure. >> I'm guessing you probably work and try and provide for your girlfriend, baby, all that good stuff. You're probably tired, all that. You know what I mean? I'm just trying to figure out what happened. Luckily, the baby's fine. I don't know if anyone told you that. Baby's crying, alert, all that good stuff. >> Everything. >> So, what happened? I'm a little intoxicated and I can't give you the straight answer because I'm a little >> Each time the officers insist he tell the truth, Frederickson shows visible frustration, sighing, avoiding eye contact, and replying with short or evasive answers. That resistance to providing a clear account not only hinders the investigation, but exposes the entertainment. >> For what? What? What did you do that would cause me to need to handcuff you? >> I'm so confused. >> You're confused. I'm confused. Look, all I'm looking for is a straight answer to what happened. Like I said, the baby's fine. They're at the hospital checking her out right now. >> Officer, please handcuff me. >> I ain't going to lie and put you in cuffs for that. I mean, that's not what I do. So, >> you're not lying. >> Okay. So, you're a violent is what you're telling me. >> Yeah, that's what I'm basically saying. >> Okay. Why? >> Did Were you the baby at all? I >> I'm trying to get to >> I'm being honest with you. >> I understand. I appreciate that. I mean, you wasn't I wasn't I was trying to rock her >> while she was still laying on the bed. >> Yeah, I picked her. >> I picked I picked her up. >> So, you threw her You were holding her trying to rock her and get her to quiet down. She wasn't quieting down. I'm just going through it to make sure I have everything correct. Okay. So, after you picked her back up, what' you do? just try to comfort her, work side to side, and then after that I just gave up. >> Okay. What do you mean by you gave up? >> Just put her on the bed and just you guys came in. And >> how'd you set her on the bed the second time? >> She was screaming. >> So you started screaming >> and then you guys came and Okay. So after you put her on the bed the second time, what did you do? >> I picked her up. >> So you picked her up a third time? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> Please arrest me. >> What happened the third time you picked her up? >> Put her down like a piece of >> Where'd you put her down the third time? >> Back on the bed. >> Explain it to me just so I have a picture. I hope that camera is showing exactly it is. Yes, sir. >> Frederickson admits that frustration was the trigger, but keeps his account irregular. Incomplete sentences, long pauses, and claims of not knowing how the baby stopped breathing. While speaking, he frequently sigh and his expression changes whenever he has to recall what he did, showing signs of discomfort that seem more tied to the difficulty of verbalizing his actions than to genuine remorse. He eventually chose to physically demonstrate what he had done, a decision that introduced a critical element. Medical professionals would later confirm the child's head and neck was consistent with blunt force injury. This reinforced that the event was not accidental but part of an escalating pattern already known to investigators. >> So after that, how'd the baby react? She was crying. >> She was still crying. [Music] >> What's that? Yes, sir. About that. >> What do you mean about that? Okay. So, something happened between your girlfriend came back in. >> I honestly don't know. In between that time, officer. >> Okay. When can you recall when the stopped breathing? >> That point? I can't give you an accurate answer because I don't know. >> Do you not know? Just you can't remember. Did you black out of anger or what was it? because I don't even know she even >> After admitting to the assault, Frederickson claims not to know what happened afterward, not even if she lost consciousness. The violent episode seemed to have clouded his recollection, or at the least, that's what he wanted officers to believe. >> I didn't even know you guys were. >> Just handcuff me, please. >> Okay, I'll go ahead and do that. >> Thank you. Just take me to jail here. Give me your cup. >> I can remember what the is happening. >> I'm sorry for the alcohol in my breath. It's just your vape knowing that. >> Can I one more time before I go to jail? >> Yeah, man. [Music] >> Where'd your wallet? You want to take your wallet with you? >> Uh, it's all on the ground. >> I Do you want to take it with you? >> All right. No. >> Put him in your face. >> All right. Come on. >> Careful. >> I really don't care. If I fall on my face, I can >> No. No. We're not going to do that while you cuss. >> Get in there. Hey, don't be doing that. >> Lean back. >> Yes, sir. >> Lean back all the way back. Look at me. >> Don't be slamming your head on no glass. You understand? >> Yes, sir. >> After the admission and recreation, the officer orders Frederickson be taken to the patrol car. And during transport, he begins banging his head against the divider glass. a self act combining impulsiveness with lack of emotional control. Such reactions are common in offenders facing the immediiacy of arrest and the weight of serious charges, but can also be interpreted as attempts to disrupt the process or alter custody conditions. In the context of this case, the behavior reinforces the image of an individual with low frustration tolerance and extreme responses to stress. the same traits that according to investigators had been present in prior episodes and culminated in the November 19th assault. >> I said, "Do you not remember? Like you just don't recall or do you like black out or what?" He said, "She blacked out." I said, "We your girlfriend or the He said, "So, we'll take him. Go ahead." Um, [Music] >> go ahead. Um, put him in the interview room. >> Uh, no. Just the one in the lobby. Did you see any blood in there at all? >> I did >> cuz I guess a girlfriend saying something about blood. I didn't see blood anywhere. >> If he's in my car, if he's just drunk, I have to stay out here with him. >> Yeah, that's fine. So, go ahead. >> Ask him if I can go walk through the apartment. >> Aaron, we have the report ready. So, >> all right, Aaron. Um, do you mind if I go back in your apartment real quick? Just walk through, make sure everything's okay. >> Yes, sir. >> I can I can? >> Yes, sir. Okay, I appreciate it. >> You got my verbal consent. >> Okay, I appreciate. >> So, if you need to record it, you can. I've got whatever you want to say. >> So, >> for a brief moment >> and then she walked back out to call us. >> I know of. Yes. >> Okay. >> She seemed very panicked. Sarah, >> she seemed very concerned. >> Okay. There was a baby crying during this time at that moment. So, >> was there any any blood or anything that you saw? >> It's on one of her sheets. Officer on one of her sheets. Where's that at? >> Um, is it possible I can come with you and just point it out? >> Yeah, absolutely. >> You said we can go in? >> Yes. >> Okay. So where at? >> You see the bus right there? Look up. >> Okay. >> But I was the one who caused it. >> Okay. Is there blood anywhere else or is this all that you know of? >> No, that's the only ones I But I do notice right here. >> Uhhuh. >> All that pizza roll right there. I do not know. >> That might just be spaghetti sauce. Did you throw the plate or >> I don't have full recollection of it, but I didn't throw on it, but I do recall. >> I gota Okay. >> Just arrest me. He sent me to jail. >> All right. Well, we're not going to go to jail quite yet. We're going to take you down to the PD. Okay. Um, I'm a piece of stuff. >> Back at the residence, officers try to gather details which could help document the scene and strengthen the investigation. Frederickson guides them inside once more and repeats his account of where the incident occurred, yet provides no additional details and shows little intention of expanding his version. The absence of visible evidence forces the case to rely heavily on medical findings and his own recorded admission from moments earlier. For investigators, this moment confirms two key points. That the aggressor has no real intention to cooperate and that the incident left no immediate traces that could be mistaken for a household accident. In crimes of this nature, that combination strengthens the hypothesis of a deliberate act. >> One step at a time. >> All I was saying was I wish I pull a done on you guys. So, I acted like a crazy person. So, you guys got to me. So, >> all right. Don't talk like that. >> Hey, don't talk like that. >> Just throw me in jail like everyone else. >> I admit to you guys I put my hands on my own. >> During transport to the station, Frederickson continues with self-destructive remarks, insisting he would have preferred to be harmed by police more than a sign of remorse. Such statements are usually interpreted as emotionally self-centered responses showing no real empathy for the victim. In the context of the case, these expressions align with the pattern observed from the beginning. Extreme reactions when confronted, a self-focused perspective, and an inability to fully accept the consequences of the harm caused. Together, they portray him as an individual with low tolerance for frustration and a tendency toward impulsive behavior. What I can't understand is I told her that I can't do this anymore. I told her I didn't want to be out here and stay here with this hurt. >> You all right there? >> I will just piss on myself cuz you say >> no. Don't do that yet. >> Don't be slamming your head, please. >> What the h? Hey, uh, per Presley. Uh, he's not he's not 10:15. He's just detained right now. >> He's not 10:15. He's just detained. >> Hey, he's banging his head on my glass. >> Just put it on there. >> Ah, he's bleeding. He's bleeding. Change of course to the hospital. Sorry to interrupt your phone conversation there. I'm sure you're worried and everything, but we're trying to piece together what exactly was going on. U when something like this happens, our primary objective is like, "All right, let's get this kid to the hospital so we can do an evaluation. We'll worry about the rest later." Oh, I haven't made him. I just walked straight over to you. I just got here. So, I was just trying to figure out what happened at home. Like, what was going on? >> So, me and her dad's been having a hard time. >> Um, I know this is probably going to get me into trouble. I don't want it, but I don't care. That's my daughter, >> right? this after this. >> All we want is the facts. And if someone's in trouble, that part is what it is. We need to know the facts without any lying or leaving things out. >> So, we haven't really had a technical argument cuz I really don't talk back cuz I know it's going to be worse if I talk back. And so, I just kind of keep quiet. He knows I'm upset and he's been stressed. You know, he's the one making all the money and everything. So, you know, things get heated today more than usual. So, I walk out first with the baby. Mom's supposed to go back inside cuz it's cold. I'm like, "Well, she's not safe in there alone because he's been drinking at that time. I'm not going to leave her in there with him." >> He wasn't ready for the child. Tells me he didn't want the child, but that he still loves her. He's just not ready right now and doesn't want her right now. So, I I'm not um shocked, but I am shocked that it happened. So, >> So, when you tried to leave the kid and she was like, "Go back inside. It's cold." But you knew he had been drinking, so you didn't leave him alone with her. Can I explain that to me? like how how how long was he alone with the kid? And like did you did you go back in? >> This is way before that happened. I go back inside on the phone with my mom, right? >> I don't know yet. >> Is it okay? Like >> I'll I'll come with you. >> Mommy, how long with him? >> Honestly, like five at least five minutes. >> Okay. So only unsupervised with partner for about 5 minutes. Was she holding her when you got in there? >> No, I had her in her crib like a little bed. >> Hey, I need >> So the hospital kind of grabbed mom away from me while I was trying to interview and figure out what the hell happened. Um, but I was trying to overhear what she was saying to them. And it sounds like she only left child alone with him for 5 minutes in the room, but knew he was intoxicated when she did that. She came back, she said she saw blood and there was something wrong with the baby. she could tell. So, she just started yelling, "What did you do?" And he was just saying, "I don't know." >> So, we don't know. I don't know. That's all I have right now. And she is in there in the trauma room with baby. And they're not letting me talk right now. >> While Frederickson is being transported, an officer heads to the hospital to interview Helena. She admits that living with him means avoiding any confrontation since responding to him only makes him more angry. Although she acknowledges that he was drinking when she left the baby in his care, she still left. confirming she was aware of the risk. This initial testimony already points to possible gross negligence. In the context of the case, her decision not only reflects a failure to protect her child, but also matches what the investigation would later establish, that she had been aware of prior incidents and had never reported them. Well, so the call we got was child wasn't breathing. making like it was making weird noises and had >> so I'm concerned that he like the child somehow while she was out of the room cuz he is he apparently had the conversation we had before we got to the details of today was he's always told her he never wanted this child he wasn't ready for this child he's been drinking today they've been fighting and she left him alone with child for about 5 minutes she thinks that he could have possibly done something to kid to make that happen not like a neglect thing just was laying there passed out drunk and something bad happened but that he maybe has intentionally done something to the >> among the officers. Doubts arise about Helena's level of involvement. Her statements combined with her calm demeanor lead them to question whether her role was limited to omission or if she had a more direct participation in what had happened. >> We're going to be in route to the hospital and they scr off and I hurried up here and you know the rest. And currently I just want to let you know I'm kind of tied up dealing with something right now. child near input thing and I don't know how long it's going to be. So, we just need to go. We need to go ahead. Someone needs to stay there, secure the scene. Someone needs to transport him to the PD, contact Presley, get him to the on call and have a detective coming in if they're willing to work >> and I'm going to try to get the rest of the story up here for mom. >> My understanding on the story is this. Make sure you pass it along to her for me, please. The male was left with the child for about 5 minutes. Intentionally her multiple times on the bed to the point where she like blacked out, stopped making noise finally. And then he said he blacked out. I can't remember what happened, but he intentionally the child down wouldn't stop. Multiple times still stopped. >> The officer radios in that Helena claims not to know what happened in the short time she was gone, stressing that only a brief interval passed between her leaving and returning. The overlap between that absence and the sudden appearance of the child's injuries generates immediate concern. From an investigative standpoint, it aligns with the already established pattern. A father with a record of recent concerning behavior left unsupervised in a high stress setting and a mother who despite recognizing the risk had failed to intervene. >> All right. So, we you were trying to tell me a story about kind of what was taking place earlier. When you came back, what did you what did you observe? What was going on? Um, I walked in there with a mess. I look on the counter, there's a broken plate. And I'm like, "Babe, what happened? Did you drop it?" He's like, "Yeah." And he's holding her calmly laying in his arms. And then I look around the room, there's pizza rolls all over the floor. >> And I'm like, "Okay." I look in her bed, there's the blood spots. And I'm automatically like, "That's not supposed to be there." >> Automatically in my head, you probably know what I was thinking. So I'm like, "Hey, what happened?" You know, I'm trying to make him think I'm not mad at him. I mean, I am mad. and I do still love him. I do still care about him. >> Disturbingly, as she recounts it all, she laughs and says she loves Frederickson. A stark contrast revealing an emotional disconnect from the seriousness of the events. >> Formula bottle and stuff over at the neighbor's house. Of course, I was going to go get it back. >> So, you just went over to the neighbor's house to get >> I expected it to be a quick go get it back, but he wanted to have, you know, a few more words with me, the neighbor. I was just about to end a conversation, but he's still speaking. I wasn't going to interrupt him. And he comes over. Arian goes by the door. Babe, you come over here. so calmly too. I was just thinking just a second ago while I was sitting over there like he went over so calmly like nothing happened. Maybe he didn't do anything and that's why you know he was calm but even if she fell and stuff like you would think you would be like shaky like babe get your over you right now like she just rolled over herself but I don't believe that cuz she doesn't roll. 911 person on the phone. I told her someone was like, "Do I have to while she's still breathing?" Well, she isn't breathing normal. I don't know what normal breathing sounds like. Like with a baby, she usually like sounds like >> first child, correct? >> Yes. She usually sounds like she's like, you know, a little chokey when she she gets fed and needs birth. >> What about your daughter? What's her name? >> What was her birthday? >> We haven't even made it a month yet. >> Yes. >> You can you can get back over with the with your kiddo. I know our tough part right now let you be there. >> During her statement, her demeanor stands out. Steady tone, occasional smiles, and psychologically such reactions can stem from an unconscious defense mechanism to regulate stress or discomfort or from an emotional detachment common in those accustomed to violent environments. For investigators, this mixture of apparent calm and contradictory expressions reinforces the view. Despite seeing clear signs of violence, she had chosen not to protect the child. >> So she said they had been arguing and he always talks about how he wasn't ready to be a parent. Didn't want to be dead. Blah blah blah blah whatever. >> But anyway, today they're arguing. She goes, "Oh, baby, mom says you don't need to do that." I guess she at some point goes into the neighbor's apartment with some formula and baby, but then decides to come back to the apartment. They continue arguing. She said she didn't want to leave her property in the neighbors. So, she left baby with dad who was intoxicated. Just left him there with goes back over there. She said she thought it was just going to be a quick grab myself and go back. But the neighbor kept like having conversation. Eventually, Arian comes over, knocks on the door and says, "Hey, can you come over here?" All calm, like nothing was even going on. >> She goes back in there and she said she saw a broken plate on the floor, saw pizza rolls everywhere, and she was like, "What happened?" And then she noticed that it looked like the had some like blood near it or something. So she said she immediately knew something was wrong. Started asking what happened. Called us. >> Yeah. Yeah. I was in tears outside about it already. >> Yeah. Trying to like suck it in. >> After hearing her, the officer says he doesn't believe her version. Her story contains gaps and contradictions that together with her demeanor strengthen the suspicion that she is not telling the entire truth. >> Dad is in custody. should be >> right now. We're trying to figure out was she part of the involvement or not. We don't know yet. >> Okay. So, >> she's saying that she wasn't, but we can't make that determination. >> Confirming that. Okay. Not bringing mom with us >> right now. No, she's in my opinion, she's still detained for the investigation. She's not going anywhere. >> Can't say everything I want to say, brother. I promise. >> Hey, wake up. Come on. Wake up. >> Okay. So, they're going to be transporting this baby and and I want somebody to assist them with intersections as long as we can. Uh just to get them faster through town at least. [Music] No, >> the infant's being loaded into the ambulance now. Have all units prepared. [Music] >> Dad. >> Yes. >> Okay. We're going to um let me see if consult is um available. If so, we're going to go through there. [Music] All right, Ariel, take these off. We're going to go. Did you pee or that just spilled that blood? This is right, my friend. All right, we're going to walk in there. I'm going to take you to the bathroom. Okay. Okay. 18. This is where we're going. >> Okay. Thank you. >> No problem. Go ahead and take a seat. >> I keep telling the woman I don't want to be a part. >> I can sit down. Take a seat. Just stay seated. Okay. Oh. >> Oh goodness. Yeah. Let's um >> Yeah. I I look like a piece of Thank you. >> Oh, you just look like you're in pain. So, we're going to get you. >> I'm not a pain. I'm a >> W. Take a seat. Take a seat. >> Listen to me. >> And I'm going to have to keep this door shut cuz we're going to have patients come this. >> Don't get up. Get your medical attention and let's move forward. Whatever's happened is is currently out of our control. Okay. >> If you do something stupid up here, it's only going to make things worse. And you don't need that right now. I can assure you this. [ __ ] with it. I did this to myself. [Music] >> Now, here's the doctor. She's going to take a look at you. >> Hey, Mr. Hannah. Have you lean back? I just want to take a look at you and get you cleaned up. >> Talk about cleaning me up. I already know what's going on. >> You hit your head against something metal. Is that all right? >> I don't know. I just hit my head on. >> Marian, calm down. >> Take a look at you. Okay, sir. I >> just hit my head because I don't know how to >> regulate my emotions. >> I keep telling people, but people don't want to listen. >> Do you take any blood thinners? >> No. >> No. Okay. >> I just drink alcohol, so that's why my blood is thin. >> Okay. Have you been drinking tonight? Yes, ma'am. >> Okay. >> And do you take any medications on a daily basis or anything? >> I'm supposed to. >> You're supposed to. Okay. What are you supposed to take? >> Some anti- anti anti-anxiety, anti-dopressants. Is >> there a reason that you don't take them? >> Cuz I can't afford it because I'm the only one who pays for everything. >> Did you get anything else, sir? >> I just hit my skull. I wish I hit it harder so I don't speak to anybody. We're going to put some get some numbing medication for that. >> I don't want no numbing, man. >> Okay. >> I just want to know what the I done, bro. I want >> The only thing I can do is kind of help you medically. And what I see right now is that you need stitches or staples. >> Both of them. I want to know my own wrist. Why the you guys put on my head when you see people [ __ ] their wrists? Ariel, let them help you out so we can get this whole process over with. Okay. Is that that's what you want? Is that what you want? >> After banging his head on the patrol car, Frederickson is taken to the hospital for treatment. Physically stable, he intermittently cries and insults himself, repeating phrases that seem more like dramatization than a genuine acknowledgement of what happened. The doctor asks about his medication and he says that he should be taking anzolytics and anti-depressants, but doesn't because he can't afford them. When he declares that he deserves to and refuses medical care, he projects an image of self-punishment. Yet, the underlying message is different. His words only focus on his own suffering, showing no responsibility or empathy for the critically injured child. This raises an inevitable question. Are these reactions signs of real remorse or just a way to shift attention onto himself to divert the focus from the harm he had caused? So, was was um Helina was she at home when all this happened? >> No, she she wasn't physically in the apartment. >> Okay. How long was she gone? >> Not sure. >> I don't even know, officer. I split. I keep on telling people. So, what happened was I'm going to wait till his camera is pointing at me.

She says she was so like hanging out talking to him but was just going over to get some stuff and come right back and he kept having conversation with her. He shows up. Hey, I need you to come back over here. She said so I came back over there and I found everything as it was and started freaking out. But he's saying she came back on her own.

All right. >> Can you see if the doctor can get the medication to calm him down? >> Yep. >> Frederickson escalates from verbal agitation to rage, raising his voice and threatening the officers, confirming his predisposition to respond with violence, even under custody. >> We'll let you sit. That's fine. >> Like, what the calm down? I can easily grab your gun. That'll be a mistake. I did it, but I'm going to do it. Go ahead.

Doesn't matter. >> What did I tell you when I was walking into my car? We're not going to let that happen in our custody, right? >> While receiving care at the hospital, Frederickson shifts from initial passivity to an increasingly aggressive stance. He begins shouting insults, tensing his body, and resisting staff. At one point, he threatens to take an officer's weapon, an act that not only raises the danger for everyone in the room, but also shows his lack of control and readiness to escalate. Officers try to restrain him without provoking further aggression, but he continues resisting and hurling insults. In the context of a high-profile criminal case, this behavior underscores a clear pattern, inability to regulate emotions, willingness to resort to violence, and a tendency to challenge authority, even while in custody. Investigators see this not as an isolated loss of control, but as a recurring behavior that had already endangered his daughter. And now the officers tasked with guarding him. Aryan Ernest Frederickson, identified as the primary aggressor, faces charges of first-degree criminal of a child under the age of 12 and first-degree domestic. His bond is set at $1 million cash. And if convicted, he faces 10 to 20 years in prison for each charge with the possibility of consecutive sentences totaling 20 to 40 years. As a violent offender, he must serve at least 85% of his sentence before becoming eligible for parole. Elena T. Herbert, the victim's mother, is charged with firstdegree criminal failure to report child. She faces 10 to 20 years in prison for the first charge and 1 to five for the second. The prosecution may consider mitigating factors such as her age, lack of prior record, and possible status as domestic violence victim. If she cooperates and testifies against Frederickson, her sentence may be reduced. Both remain in custody, awaiting trial. The severity of the charges and the vulnerability of the victim keep this case under close watch within Kucky's judicial system.
