[00:05:59] Keanu Davis: I was taking, this was before, um, going to MRSA, but I was taking extra, I had already had a degree in web design and web development, so I was just continuing my education by taking more classes to get certified in a specific programming language. [00:06:13] Speaker 1: Okay, what specific programming were you going into? [00:06:16] Keanu Davis: Uh, Java programming. [00:06:17] Speaker 1: Pardon me? [00:06:18] Keanu Davis: Java is a programming language, so I was getting certified for that specific language. [00:06:22] Speaker 1: Okay, was this, were these classes that were going towards a master's degree? [00:06:27] Keanu Davis: Uh, after the software application development, yes, yes, um, I did get a master's degree after that. [00:06:34] Speaker 1: All right, so at some point in time after you, you got your degree from, from MRSA, did you begin teaching? [00:06:42] Keanu Davis: Uh, I was teaching before, already. I was working for Central Georgia Technical College as an industrial aide, so essentially I was teaching. [00:06:52] Speaker 1: Okay, so, tell us, you, you're working for, for where? [00:06:55] Keanu Davis: Central Georgia Technical College. I was working as an industrial aide, so essentially my job was to run all of the technology in the classrooms that were being ran by the college for dual enrollment during high school hours. [00:07:11] Speaker 1: And, at Central, this is, this is all COVID law, is that right? Correct. And, when did you start working for them? [00:07:20] Keanu Davis: I believe around June of 2019. [00:07:27] Speaker 1: Okay, and this was, this was after the baby was born, is that correct? Correct. Were, were you independent and, and, and, uh, Kadeem and Ambrose still living together at that time? [00:07:38] Keanu Davis: Yes, we were. [00:07:39] Speaker 1: All right. Now, uh, and, and, and, and, and, and tell the jury if you would, um, if you worked for the college there, what, where did that job took you to? [00:07:51] Keanu Davis: Um, my main location in my office was in Jones County in Milledgeville, Georgia, um, where I spent most of my time until COVID happened and then, um, due to low staffing, I had to then take over other offices in the Warner Robins area. [00:08:07] Speaker 1: Oh, okay, you, you take other offices at, at other schools, is that correct? Correct. Which other schools did you work at? [00:08:15] Keanu Davis: Uh, the House and County Career Academy here in Warner Robins. [00:08:19] Speaker 1: And that's off Russell Parkway? [00:08:20] Keanu Davis: That is correct. [00:08:21] Speaker 1: Okay, and, and where else? [00:08:23] Keanu Davis: Uh, the Central Georgia Table College at Cohen Walker in Warner Robins. [00:08:27] Speaker 1: Okay, and were you still working, uh, at, at the, at the school at Jones County? [00:08:33] Keanu Davis: Yes, I was doing all of them. [00:08:34] Speaker 1: Okay, how often would you go to these different locations? Would you, would you report every morning to the college and then drive to the, the, the, um, Jones County High School? How would you do that? [00:08:49] Keanu Davis: Um, it would depend on which classes I was monitoring that day, so, I would, you typically get a schedule, um, for the semester, at the beginning of the semester, and it depends on whether or not the teacher was canceling class or not, they would let me know and I would either go to the location or I would stay in my office in Jones County. [00:09:10] Speaker 1: Um, would you, would you do this five days a week, five days a week, five days a week, five days a week, yes sir. Okay, and in doing this, Carter, uh, uh, did you continue, did you continue, did you continue to teach, um, when did you leave, uh, teaching here, uh, for, for the college? [00:09:31] Keanu Davis: Um, I signed my contract with Gwinnett County Public Schools in October of 2021, um, so I was scheduled to leave here and start working there in January of 2021, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I signed my contract October of 2020 with Gwinnett County and I was start, supposed to start working with Gwinnett County in January of 2021. [00:09:55] Speaker 1: And, and Carter passed away in November. [00:09:58] Keanu Davis: Yes, he ended up passing away in June of that time. [00:10:02] Speaker 1: Okay, now, so I, I take it, well, let's, because we're doing these things in a sequence, you, um, after, after Carter passed away, did you subsequently move to Gwinnett County? [00:10:22] Keanu Davis: I moved to Gwinnett County in, when I started my job, so I would say, maybe a week before the semester began, so around January 6th of 2021. [00:10:33] Speaker 1: And, and what's, what school did you work at? [00:10:37] Keanu Davis: At the time, I was scheduled at Peachtree Ridge High School. [00:10:40] Speaker 1: And how long did you stay there? [00:10:42] Keanu Davis: Um, I stayed for a year and a half, because I was promoted after that. [00:10:47] Speaker 1: And did, did you stay at that school or did you go to another school? [00:10:51] Keanu Davis: I went to open a school, um, I, that was part of my promotion to help open the computer science department at secondary high school. [00:10:57] Speaker 2: Your Honor, do you want to approach? [00:10:58] Keanu Davis: Yep. [00:11:28] Speaker 1: Go ahead, Ms. Davis, tell us again as to which high school you went to work for at Peachtree Ridge. [00:11:57] Keanu Davis: Second your high school. [00:11:59] Speaker 1: Can you spell that? [00:12:00] Keanu Davis: S-E-C-K-I-N-G-E-R. [00:12:04] Speaker 1: And that was a high school, a public high school? [00:12:06] Keanu Davis: Yes, it had just opened the year that I started. [00:12:09] Speaker 1: In Connecticut County? Yes. And you stayed there until that you were arrested on this charge? That's correct. And that was when? [00:12:22] Keanu Davis: That was in October of 2023. [00:12:26] Speaker 1: And since you were arrested, you were prevented from continuing to teach, is that correct? [00:12:39] Keanu Davis: Because I cannot physically be there yet, but that was my only condition. [00:12:47] Speaker 1: And you're currently living with your grandfather under house arrest, is that correct? That is correct. And that's in Warren Robbins? That's correct. Objective, Your Honor. This isn't relevant. [00:12:58] Speaker 2: The objection sustained. The jury will disregard any reference to the conditions of her pre-trial release. Moving on. [00:13:06] Speaker 1: All right. Now, Ms. Davis, let me ask you this. Carter, his date of birth again was when? [00:13:17] Keanu Davis: January 14, 2018. [00:13:23] Speaker 1: And at the time that Carter was born, did he develop any problems as far as being sickly? [00:13:32] Keanu Davis: Yes, he did. Yes, he did. [00:13:33] Speaker 1: Okay. Once again, you were living in San Piper Apartments with Ms. Graham Rose? I was. Was Carter hospitalized soon after he was born? [00:13:53] Keanu Davis: I'm not sure how soon it was, but he was hospitalized for sure right before his first birth. [00:14:03] Speaker 1: And for what type of problems? [00:14:06] Keanu Davis: He was having breathing issues and he was admitted into the NICU for a few days. [00:14:12] Speaker 1: The NICU where? [00:14:13] Keanu Davis: In Maine. [00:14:16] Speaker 1: At the time that this happened, were you and Mr. Ambrose still living with each other? Yes, we were. At some point in time, who was your doctor for Carter? Dr. Waters. And where was Dr. Waters at? [00:14:36] Keanu Davis: At primary pediatrics. [00:14:39] Speaker 1: And that's the primary pediatrics that we've been talking about all week, is that correct? That's correct. At some point in time, did you and Mr. Ambrose move from where you were living to San Piper Apartments? [00:14:53] Keanu Davis: We didn't. [00:14:53] Speaker 1: Where did you move to? [00:14:55] Keanu Davis: We moved to 6080 Lakeview Road, which was for the doctor's office. It was right next to the doctor's office. [00:15:01] Speaker 1: How far away? [00:15:03] Keanu Davis: There's 6082, so I would say maybe a few yards, not even. [00:15:08] Speaker 1: And was there a, was that primarily a reason for you moving to this location? [00:15:14] Keanu Davis: Yes, because of my child's medical conditions, I felt more comfortable moving closer to the doctor's office. [00:15:19] Speaker 1: Would it be a fair statement to say that you spent a lot of time at the pediatric, at the pediatric place? [00:15:29] Keanu Davis: A lot of time, yes. I would say, I mean, yes. [00:15:33] Speaker 1: And you were aware, are you not, of all the medical reports that were provided by their business, is that correct? That is correct. And as far as you know, there's a true and accurate representation of the times that you took Carter to that place for treatment, is that right? That is correct. What type of treatments? [00:15:50] Keanu Davis: He, you mean what type of things that did he go for? He's been for allergic reactions. He's mainly been for his breathing issues and his minor checkups, regular checkups, and any COVID tests and anything that needs to be done. [00:16:09] Speaker 1: At some point in time, did the relationship between yourself and Mr. Ambrose, did it dissolve or end? [00:16:32] Keanu Davis: It did. [00:16:32] Speaker 1: When would that have been? [00:16:37] Keanu Davis: I really can't tell you when it started to dissolve, but I know for sure when he moved out in March of 2021. 2020. [00:16:48] Speaker 1: Okay. He moved out in March of 2020, is that right? Correct. And you were still teaching at the college, is that right? That is correct. During this period of time, you say it was March of 2020 when Mr. Ambrose moved out. That is correct. Did you maintain contact with him from the time that he left until Carter passed away? [00:17:27] Keanu Davis: Contact as in regarding the child is. [00:17:32] Speaker 1: Was he paying child support? [00:17:34] Keanu Davis: He was, we had an agreement before we, I actually initiated the court, ordered child support. All right. [00:17:43] Speaker 1: Now, during this particular period of time from, after Mr. Ambrose left, where was Carter being, was he getting daycare or how were you doing about keeping when you worked? [00:18:05] Keanu Davis: Yes. So, I would take him to daycare before work and then I would make him up in the afternoon unless his father was off from work or was able to because his schedule didn't allow him to take him to work because he didn't get off in the time frame. [00:18:19] Speaker 1: All right, and what was the statecare at? [00:18:22] Keanu Davis: Off of Russell Parkway near, when I was in middle school up there. [00:18:28] Speaker 1: Was that a minimum of Ms. Thar that testified this week? That's a minimum. And how often would Ms. Thar keep, keep Carter? [00:18:38] Keanu Davis: She would keep him pretty much every day unless I had a day off or his father had a day off. [00:18:45] Speaker 1: And did that, that involvement between yourself and Mr. Ambrose, was that fairly successful as far as looking after Carter? [00:18:57] Keanu Davis: Sure, yes. [00:18:59] Speaker 1: Okay, no, there weren't any problems with that? [00:19:03] Keanu Davis: No, because we did everything around the schedule. [00:19:08] Speaker 1: And the schedule that Mr. Ambrose worked with the fire department was as he testified yesterday, 24 on 48 and you recognized that he had a part-time job in some sort? Yes, yes, yes, yes. Now, let, let me move on to, to November of, of 2020, uh, up until then was, was, was, was Carter a happy child? [00:19:48] Keanu Davis: Yes, yes, very happy. [00:19:50] Speaker 1: And for the most part, was he, was he fairly healthy? [00:19:55] Keanu Davis: For the most part, other than his medical commission said. [00:19:59] Speaker 1: And if there was a problem with Carter, you would, you would take him over to the pediatric place, is that correct? Absolutely. I mean, you're fairly regular over there? Yes, I'm a regular. Mr. Davis, I'm not going to, and I, and you know, Mr. Mr. Dwayne may ask, but I'm not going to get into, um, we, we've all heard what happened, um, on the 17th of November. Um, at, at, at that particular fourth time, the day that Carter passed, where were you at, physically? [00:20:47] Keanu Davis: Um, the day that he passed, I was at work. Work? In Milledgeville. [00:20:53] Speaker 1: And that was for, for, for one of the high schools up there, is that right? [00:20:57] Keanu Davis: Correct, for Jones County High School. [00:21:06] Speaker 1: And Mr. Ventworth was, was watching Carter, is that correct? That is correct. Did, did, did, did you, did you, did you, when, when you found out that Carter was in distress, did you, where did you go to? Where did you rush to? [00:21:26] Keanu Davis: I was on the phone with Mr. Venton, and he, um, informed me that they were transporting him to the emergency room, so I met at, at, at, at, at the county, um, in Memphis. Alright. [00:21:37] Speaker 1: Now, the, the, the information that you provided to the sergeant, um, the sergeant in this matter, and also to Lieutenant Meadows, um, and we, we, we heard the, the videos, the, to, to your revelation, the way of thinking, is all that true and accurate to the best of your knowledge and belief? Yes. [00:22:03] Keanu Davis: Yes. [00:22:21] Speaker 1: As far as the timetable is concerned, um, did you lay that out for Sergeant Collins and also for Lieutenant Meadows? I did. On the Monday night before Carter passed on Tuesday, did you contact his father, Mr. Ambrose, as to whether or not he could watch the child? I did. And, and, and why was that? [00:22:59] Keanu Davis: Um, because I felt more comfortable with him being home with either, um, me or Mr. Ambrose. However, I could not take off work that day, the next day, so I asked Mr. Ambrose if he could possibly take off work to watch him. [00:23:13] Speaker 1: And he would not, is that correct? That is correct. Were, were y'all going through a little bit of a span as far as the child support order is concerned at that time? [00:23:23] Keanu Davis: Um, I was not, I think that, um, the, just, I don't think he agreed with my, um, going to do it through the court system, so I don't think we weren't really on good terms because of that. [00:23:35] Speaker 1: But anyway, you went to work on that Tuesday? Correct. Yes, there's, let, let me ask you this, as far as. Did you ever do anything to harm your child? No. Did, did, I mean, this jury has to decide these charges against you. Was this child ever harmed or hurt or injured by you or in your presence? No. [00:24:47] Speaker ?: No. Okay. [00:24:49] Speaker 1: Now, Mr. Benton, from time to time, had, had, had been at your place and, and looked after the court, is that correct? [00:25:02] Keanu Davis: Yes. Yes. [00:25:04] Speaker 1: Your sworn testimony, has Mr. Benton ever done anything in your presence or to your knowledge where he would harm this child? [00:25:21] Keanu Davis: No. [00:25:34] Speaker 1: Did you ever take any action to where as though you felt like you were being negligent in taking care of the needs of court? No. Do you recall the child at any point in time falling or hurting himself or being in an accident of some sort there at the residence? [00:26:32] Keanu Davis: No, I do not. [00:26:34] Speaker 1: The Saturday before, you were at your Green Day's house, is that right? [00:26:40] Keanu Davis: That's correct. [00:26:40] Speaker 1: Did you keep a close eye on court the whole time? [00:26:43] Keanu Davis: Yes, it's always up under me. [00:27:04] Speaker 1: This day, this happened almost six years ago and do you still remember what happened during those days before? No. [00:27:21] Keanu Davis: Bailey. Bailey. [00:27:23] Speaker 1: As you have explained, once again, what happened then to Sergeant Collins and Lieutenant Meadows, do you stand by what you said? [00:27:36] Keanu Davis: Absolutely. Absolutely. [00:27:38] Speaker ?: And also Marcus Jackson from DFACS was there, is that correct? [00:27:40] Speaker 1: That's correct. That's correct. During the period of time after Carter passed away, did you try to stay in touch with the sheriff's department or law enforcement of some sort as to what was going on with the investigation? Oh, yes. [00:28:15] Keanu Davis: Yes, absolutely. [00:28:16] Speaker 1: I mean, what would you do? [00:28:17] Keanu Davis: I was consistently calling them for the three years. [00:28:21] Speaker 1: And who would you talk to? Do you know? [00:28:24] Keanu Davis: They would never come to the phone. I would always refer to the assistant to leave my number and that they would get back to me and they would never get back to me, which is why I continued to call. [00:28:34] Speaker 1: Would that just be law enforcement or did you also try to contact the district attorney's office? [00:28:39] Keanu Davis: I would contact the police department, the sheriff's department and the district attorney's office. [00:28:44] Speaker 1: And you've earned the testimony of Sergeant Collins and you met with him, did you not? And right after Carter passed away and then a few weeks later. That's correct. Did he ever, did you ever talk to him anymore? [00:29:04] Keanu Davis: We did have one phone conversation and that's all. [00:29:14] Speaker 1: And what was, what was the next time you heard from anybody from the sheriff's department? [00:29:19] Keanu Davis: I did not hear from anyone from the sheriff's department anymore after my last meeting or Sergeant Collins. [00:29:26] Speaker 1: Okay, at some point you heard from Lieutenant Meadows, is that right? A year later, yes. And you broke down to meet with him, is that right? That is correct. And are you standing by the conversation or the information that you provided him at that meeting one point? That meeting on June, excuse me, in December of 2021? Correct. Did you still continue to try to get in touch with the law enforcement about this? Yes, for a few more years. Did they ever call for you to come down here and meet with them anymore? No, they did not. The whole time you were teaching in Gwinnett County, is that right? That is correct. In addition to law enforcement, did you also talk to the corner's office? [00:30:35] Keanu Davis: No. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. [00:30:38] Speaker ?: I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office. I never spoke with the corner's office.

I never spoke with the corner's office. [00:32:09] Speaker 4: This is State's Exhibit 11. What is that? [00:32:24] Keanu Davis: That is a picture of my child's liver. [00:32:26] Speaker 4: Your child's liver. That's quite a laceration, isn't it? [00:32:29] Keanu Davis: It is. [00:32:30] Speaker 4: It is. You heard the testimony that it would be 24 to 72 hours out. So either Monday morning to Saturday morning, correct? Correct. And he was just telling you his stomach hurt? [00:32:43] Keanu Davis: He was pointing at one point saying my stomach hurts and that's all. [00:32:48] Speaker 4: And you heard Dr. Eisenstadt say this is a serious injury, right? I did. And that quite a bit of force would be needed in order to cause that injury? That is correct. So Monday he was just okay? [00:33:00] Keanu Davis: Monday he was throwing up, but I was at work all day Monday, so I did not see him all day. I only saw him during the period of time when I returned home for lunch and when I returned home after 5:00 p.m. Okay. [00:33:12] Speaker 4: And he was hurting overnight though, wasn't he? No, he wasn't. He wasn't? [00:33:18] Keanu Davis: Overnight, what day? Sunday. Sunday, no, he was not. [00:33:21] Speaker 4: Now, you said just a minute ago that you stand by the statements that you gave Collins, correct? Correct. And in your first statement, you told him that the symptoms started Sunday night. [00:33:32] Keanu Davis: I told him that on Sunday he told me that mommy my stomach hurts and that was all on Monday night. [00:33:38] Speaker 4: That was not your first statement to him? It was my first statement to him. Well, we all washed it. We did. And they can wash it again. They can. Yes, they can. So Monday he's throwing up, is that right? [00:33:52] Keanu Davis: Monday. Monday, when I got home from lunch, I suspected that what was on the floor was a puddle of juice. I did not suspect at that time that it was throw up until after he threw up with me after I returned home around 5:00 p.m. [00:34:07] Speaker 4: But you didn't take his calls for help seriously, did you? [00:34:12] Keanu Davis: I did take it as seriously as I did from what I was presenting and what he was showing. [00:34:17] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. [00:34:18] Speaker 4: I think you had said that he'd never thrown up like that before. He has thrown up like that. He hasn't thrown up like that before. But he's a crybaby, isn't he? [00:34:26] Keanu Davis: He's a crybaby in the sense of he would tell me or if he would cry if something was seriously injured or seriously wrong with him. He would tell you something seriously wrong with him? He would be crying and he would notify me that something was wrong with him. Is he? Pointing or making, like I testified or like I said, he wasn't at a point where he could say who sent it to the kid. So it would be fragments of this, this, mommy, this, mommy, that. [00:34:53] Speaker 4: Well, is a two-inch laceration to a two-year-old's liver serious? Yes. It's very serious. That's why he died, right? Correct. But he didn't say, point, he wasn't crying, just, it wasn't really alarming to you, was it? [00:35:10] Keanu Davis: He was not crying. He was not crouching over. He was not holding his stomach. He was not doing anything except for saying mommy, stomach hurt and vomiting juice. [00:35:19] Speaker 4: Mm-hmm. And you expected jury to believe that a two-year-old cried baby, who you said cried over everything, who had a two-inch laceration of his liver, wasn't really crying? [00:35:29] Keanu Davis: I expected to believe what I saw and what I presented. When did you break up with Keon? Me and Keon ended our relationship around February of 2021. Why? Because. [00:35:45] Speaker ?: Because. [00:35:46] Keanu Davis: Because why? Because we did. There was, I mean, we just broke up. That was our first time dating. And two, all of this was going on, so I, it was really a lot for me to even try to be in a relationship with anyone or focus on anything other than my child in this case. Mm-hmm. And you knew him, right? [00:36:06] Speaker 4: Correct. Mm-hmm. And you repeatedly denied that he wouldn't have done anything to your child. That is correct. Mm-hmm. But you denied that you didn't have anything to your child. Absolutely. And the timeframe, as we've all heard, is that you and Keon were the only people who had access to him. During Sunday to Monday. [00:36:26] Keanu Davis: Right. Correct. Right. Other than the Saturday that you were at your father's house. [00:36:30] Speaker 4: Right. Yes. Okay. [00:36:33] Keanu Davis: But he was fine that day. He was running around. [00:36:35] Speaker 4: And then Sunday is when he's not feeling well? [00:36:38] Keanu Davis: Sunday night is when he first mentioned mommy my stomach hurts. Okay. And then it's Monday? Monday after I got home from work yesterday. Okay. But you say Keon would never do anything like that. [00:36:56] Speaker 4: That's correct. But you deny having done anything. That is correct. So who would have done it if the only two people were he and you? [00:37:05] Keanu Davis: That is a good question. So we just don't know? We don't. Considering, and I will say this, nurses, they've all testified that my child did not have ruses on his body when he was presented to them. That is Tuesday morning. So according to that timeframe that you're trying to give me, by Tuesday morning, if something like this would have happened, he would have absolutely shown ruses. Or something on his body to a complete staff of medical professionals. And every one of them got on the stand and testified that they saw nothing. So I also did not see anything to a point where I thought that I needed to rush my child to an emergency room after hours after everyone was already off. I did not get home from work until five o'clock. That is after hours. I would have had to make an after hours appointment. I did not choose to do so because that was the first thing that my child had grown up in my presence. And I believe that when he came home would have suffice for enough time for us to be able to monitor him and then decide from there what we needed to do. [00:38:23] Speaker 4: So you said you didn't see anything? I did not see anything. At some point you said you gave him a bath and he complained his balls hurt. [00:38:31] Keanu Davis: I was washing his balls, scrubbing his balls obviously because he had to look on himself and he said ouch and I assumed that it was because I was rubbing his balls too hard. [00:38:41] Speaker 4: Well and I'm looking at State's exhibit 10 which is a picture of that very region of his body. Correct. Okay so he said is that not kind of a weird place to have a pain? Not while I'm rubbing it, no. Okay so you never saw the injury? I never saw the injury. I never saw the injury. Had no idea. [00:38:58] Keanu Davis: I never saw the injury. What about the injury to his cheek? [00:39:00] Speaker 4: I was not aware of any injury to his cheek. [00:39:01] Keanu Davis: No you didn't tell Sergeant Collins that that was from a hickey? I did not tell him it was from a hickey. I told him that me and my child often kiss each other and like to suck on each other's faces. [00:39:05] Speaker ?: And is that what caused that injury? I did not tell him it was from a hickey. I did not tell him it was from a hickey. [00:39:08] Keanu Davis: I told him that me and my child often kiss each other and like to suck on each other's faces. And is that what caused that injury? I did not tell him it was from a hickey. I told him that me and my child often kiss each other and like to suck on each other's faces. And is that what caused that mark? I have no idea. [00:39:31] Speaker 4: So it could be from you sucking on your child's face? [00:39:35] Keanu Davis: It could be I have video of me sucking on his face. [00:39:54] Speaker 4: Now it's your testimony that you and Kadeem moved to that Levy Road apartment so you could have easy access to the pediatrics office. Right? And we've seen the medical records, correct? That is correct. And you said that you were a regular. [00:40:14] Keanu Davis: That is correct. [00:40:15] Speaker 4: And what would you take him in for? [00:40:17] Keanu Davis: There have been multiple allergic reactions, random ones. He also had breathing issues that either they would send us to the emergency room for or they would already be there. Or it was regular checkups. And then of course I always saw them whenever his allergies would flare up or his vomiting renewal. [00:40:42] Speaker 4: And you didn't have any problem taking him right away, right? [00:40:45] Keanu Davis: I didn't take him right away then either. [00:40:47] Speaker 4: Okay. You never took him right away? To the doctor. Yeah. I mean if you have a problem you just took him to the doctor, right? [00:40:53] Keanu Davis: No, you have to make an appointment. Okay. [00:40:55] Speaker 4: You have to make an appointment? That is correct. Okay. Well obviously you have to make an appointment. That's obvious. Would you make an appointment once you saw his symptoms? I would make an appointment once I monitor his symptoms. Once you monitor his symptoms? Yes. Like you monitor his throwing up? [00:41:16] Keanu Davis: From 5 p.m. until the morning that he passed. [00:41:22] Speaker 4: Were you monitoring the symptoms when he threw up in his sleep? [00:41:26] Keanu Davis: I was sleeping so no until I went into the room. That was my intent to get up in the morning. I set my alarm to get up in the middle of the night to go and check on him. [00:41:37] Speaker 4: But you were aware that he threw up while he was asleep? Correct. And that was an alarm? [00:41:43] Keanu Davis: It was at that point. That was my very first alarm because he had to look in his sleep and not while he was awake. [00:41:51] Speaker 4: Mm-hmm. But you don't call Monday when you get up. Right? When you wake up Monday you just go to work. [00:41:59] Keanu Davis: Why would I need to call anyone on Monday? I don't know. [00:42:03] Speaker 4: Would you potentially - you just said it was alarming that he threw up in his sleep. [00:42:08] Keanu Davis: That was Monday night. [00:42:09] Speaker 4: Okay. Okay. And then he threw up again Monday, correct? So Monday he throws up in his sleep, which you said is alarming. Would you go to work? [00:42:16] Keanu Davis: Monday at 3, or sorry, that would be Tuesday now at 3 a.m. [00:42:22] Speaker 4: See, I'm still hung up on the fact that you told Collins that these symptoms started Sunday. [00:42:27] Keanu Davis: I told Collins that he first mentioned that his stomach was hurting on Sunday. On Monday is when I went to work. He was at home. And when I came home from lunch, he was sleeping. And he was sleeping and there was juice on my floor. And what I presented was juice because the Pacific Cup was sitting right beside it, tipped over. Right. [00:42:50] Speaker 4: But I guess my point is, is that on the first interview that you gave Collins, you told him that the kid was throwing up, Carter was throwing up Sunday. It wasn't until a month later, a couple weeks later, that you told him, "Oh, now it's Monday." I did not. [00:43:03] Keanu Davis: And also, I spoke with Mr. Collins the first time, the day after my child had died. So, I was completely discombobulated. Okay. [00:43:14] Speaker 4: And so, you had kind of no idea what was going on. You're just monitoring conditions, but Carter's just happy as can be. [00:43:20] Keanu Davis: I'm monitoring his conditions, yes. Right. [00:43:23] Speaker 4: And Carter's fine? [00:43:24] Keanu Davis: From my understanding, he has not yet thrown up in my prison. [00:43:29] Speaker 4: Okay. So, why doesn't Kadeem get to FaceTime his child? [00:43:32] Keanu Davis: Me and Kadeem were going through a, obviously, a court battle. And he was annoying me, so I blocked his number. He could still contact me via either email or he could call my child's tablet. [00:43:43] Speaker 4: He was annoying me by trying to figure out his overpayment of child support. [00:43:48] Keanu Davis: Why would he be overpaying for child support? That doesn't even make any sense. You've heard his testimony. Why would he give me money for child support if he knew that he was overpaying? [00:43:57] Speaker 4: I mean, he provided his response. [00:43:59] Keanu Davis: He gave me the money that is correct. So, that would not be overpaying. That is a volunteer. I'm giving you the money. [00:44:05] Speaker 4: Stop emailing me. No, you can't get her talking to Carter. Leave me the fuck alone. And that's the last time I'm going to tell you. Correct. All right. So, but you heard Kadeem's testimony about how you would block him when you got mad, but that he would always get to see his child FaceTime or talk to him. [00:44:24] Keanu Davis: You also heard him say that he can only get his child during the times in which he's off work. So, that would mean that he would have to be off work from his part-time job and his job at the fire station, which is not something that he can just say I'm off. It's based on his schedule. [00:44:38] Speaker 4: I'm not talking about his work schedule and whether or not he gets to keep Kadeem. I'm talking about the fact that his testimony was that even when you would block him, you would be mad at him, he would still see his child on FaceTime and be able to call the child. And now, the weekend where your child's suffering a lacerated liver, all of a sudden he can't see his child. [00:44:59] Keanu Davis: No, I called him on Monday and asked him if he could watch the child. Right. You called him Monday at what time? When I got off the word when he threw up in my arm. Okay, after he's been sick for a while? I saw him throw up for the first time that moment. [00:45:17] Speaker 4: You saw him throw up the first time at that moment when he was in your arms? [00:45:22] Keanu Davis: Correct, he threw up with me. [00:45:24] Speaker 4: Okay. And that was when or where? [00:45:27] Keanu Davis: Monday in the kitchen. Monday in the kitchen? After, yes, after I got off from work. [00:45:32] Speaker 4: Okay, so we had the red flag in the middle of the night, was that? [00:45:36] Keanu Davis: That was after. That was after? Okay. All right, so you called Kadeem and said come get him? I called Kadeem and asked him if he could take off the work to watch him that whole day and monitor him. Yes. [00:45:48] Speaker 4: And then after the fact, you blamed him for this, right? No. Yeah. You didn't say if he had just come get him, none of this would happen? [00:45:56] Keanu Davis: I do not recall saying that. You don't recall saying that, but you heard Kadeem say that. That may be his feelings. I have nothing to do with that. What do you mean nothing to do with that? It's a conversation between you and him. Or him and his own thoughts that has nothing to do with me. So Kadeem's just making stuff up. What would he be making up? He said out of his mouth, if he would have gotten the child, it probably would have happened. I had no control over that. All I could do was pick up the phone and ask my child's father, "Can you watch your child?" And considering that you had just been calling me for two days, asking me if you could see the child, I would suspect that you would assuredly want to watch the child, especially knowing that he was sick. But he told me no. [00:46:42] Speaker 4: Or none of this would have happened meant that the finger would have been pointed at him. [00:46:52] Keanu Davis: No. I don't know what you're referring to. Right. Why would I tell him that? He's my child's father. He's never... Why would you tell him what? Why would I tell him that none of this would have ever happened if he had been watching my child? [00:47:07] Speaker 4: Well, if the child died on his watch, would we point the finger at him? [00:47:16] Keanu Davis: We didn't know that the child was injured at the time. [00:47:18] Speaker 4: You didn't know? No. No. Just all this throw up, my tummy hurts. All right. Mm-hmm. Do you stand by your statements that Keon would never do this? [00:47:37] Keanu Davis: I stand by my statements that no one around me would ever harm my child. [00:47:48] Speaker 4: So, if Monday he's throwing up, why didn't you just make an appointment for him then? [00:47:56] Keanu Davis: I asked for my child's father, who is an EMT and a firefighter, to watch his sick child. He is fully medically trained to watch his own child. He is medically trained to take care of anyone who is in an emergency situation. So, yes, I went to him first before I took him to the doctor. Well, you didn't take him to the doctor. Correct. I did not have time. He passed away at 8:40 or 9:30 the next morning. Right. [00:48:29] Speaker 4: Well, he was sick in the morning, wasn't he? [00:48:31] Keanu Davis: I went to work that morning. Right. And that's my point. And I FaceTimed him. And I told Keon to rush him to the doctor's office, which was next door. [00:48:41] Speaker 4: So, after you couldn't pawn him off to Keon, or to Kadeem, he wanted to leave him with Keon. [00:48:46] Keanu Davis: Don't pawn him off to his own father? How is that? His injured child? Yes. Yes. So, you just go to work. At the time, he was injured. At the time, the only thing that he was presenting to us was throw up. [00:48:59] Speaker 4: Throw up and his stomach hurt really bad. Not really bad. [00:49:02] Keanu Davis: Mommy, my stomach hurts. [00:49:04] Speaker 4: Not really bad. A two-inch lacerated liver, but he's telling you his stomach just hurts. It's not really bad. He's not crying. [00:49:11] Keanu Davis: Nothing. He is not crying. I work with children. I would have suspected someone of this magnitude to be crouching over, to be holding his stomach, to be indicating something of pain. [00:49:24] Speaker 4: I think we all would. So, when Kadeem doesn't take Carter, you don't make a doctor's appointment for him? [00:49:36] Keanu Davis: It's, at this point, around 7 o'clock, and after hours is what you would have to do in order to get an appointment. You would have to call the number, and if you get an appointment, they will then tell you that you can come in at a certain time the next day. So, there is no instance where he would have been able to see any medical professional unless I called 911 that day. Urgent care is open? I don't know about urgent care. Emergency room is open? He did not present any symptoms where I felt like I needed to take him to be open. [00:50:07] Speaker 4: And that's not what I asked you. I asked you if it was an emergency room open. I'm assuming. [00:50:11] Keanu Davis: You're assuming? I'm assuming emergency rooms are open. They're not open 24 hours? I'm assuming they're open 24 hours. [00:50:20] Speaker 4: You assume that's not something that you just know, you're just guessing that that's true? [00:50:24] Keanu Davis: I don't work for an emergency room, so I don't know the time. [00:50:26] Speaker 4: And neither do I, but I don't need to work for an emergency room to know that I can go there at any time. Correct. [00:50:32] Keanu Davis: Right. [00:50:33] Speaker 4: So, you do know that? [00:50:35] Keanu Davis: You can go to an emergency room at any time. That's basic information. [00:50:43] Speaker 4: And if you get called to a doctor, chances are you would have gotten a recording that said this is after hours. If this is an emergency, please hang up and dial 911. Correct. You did none of that? [00:50:55] Keanu Davis: Why would I need to call 911 for vomit of juice? Or go to the emergency room? He was vomiting juice and this was not the first time that my child has vomited. And the first time that he was vomiting, we did go and see a doctor and she told me that because it could be an allergic reaction that he would eventually get over it. So, no. [00:51:17] Speaker 4: But it is the first time that he vomited in his sleep and didn't wake up. [00:51:21] Keanu Davis: He did wake up. He did wake up. He did wake up. You just heard them say that he was on the phone with me and he was awake. In his sleep the night before? In his sleep the night before he threw up in his sleep. I took him and I moved into the other bed. When I got up that morning for work, which was a couple hours later, he was wide awake and he was talking. [00:51:44] Speaker 4: When you were on the phone with Kion, when he was taking your dying child to primary pediatrics, correct? I was on FaceTime the entire time. Correct. Do you remember any of the statements that y'all made on the phone? Statements? [00:52:02] Keanu Davis: Do you remember any part of that conversation? No, because I was at that point driving from Milledgeville. I ran out of my office and I was driving from Milledgeville back to one around me. [00:52:12] Speaker 4: So, you don't recall if Kion said to you, man, I should have brought him in last night when you told me to? [00:52:18] Keanu Davis: No. [00:52:22] Speaker 4: Why would you have told him to take Carter? [00:52:24] Keanu Davis: That's a very good question because why would I tell him to take him? Right. Well, I mean you did. You did tell him to take him Tuesday morning. I did not tell him to take him on Tuesday morning. You did? Why wouldn't I tell him? He's the only one with him. [00:52:36] Speaker 4: He said don't worry about that right now. Just get here. Do you recall that? I do not. In the daycare, Ms. Shirley, right? How long have you been knowing her? [00:53:01] Keanu Davis: I have known her since my child went to daycare. [00:53:04] Speaker 4: And you kind of went to high school. You went to high school with Kazette? [00:53:08] Keanu Davis: I did, but we did not hang out, no. [00:53:10] Speaker 4: Until you started to bring Carter to her mom and then you guys kind of had more of a friendly relationship? [00:53:16] Keanu Davis: No, I never had any type of relationship with Kazette until after my child passed. Okay. [00:53:21] Speaker 4: So, after your child passed, so what was that relationship like? [00:53:24] Keanu Davis: There was no relationship. It was more so they had a party and she invited me over and I went to her place and that was the last time that I saw her school to Kazette. And you took wine to her place, right? I did not take wine. [00:53:36] Speaker 4: So, you didn't go to her place to pick up a plate? [00:53:39] Keanu Davis: I went to her place. Like I said, they were having a party of some sort and I went to pick up a plate for you. [00:53:45] Speaker 4: You don't even know what kind of party it was? No, I don't. You don't recall it being a Christmas party? No. You don't recall that you took Christmas gifts there? [00:53:54] Keanu Davis: He didn't tell me that he took Christmas gifts. Okay. [00:53:57] Speaker 4: Okay. But who called you and told you that you could get a plate? [00:54:00] Keanu Davis: Kazette. [00:54:01] Speaker 4: Kazette did? Yes. And you could pick it up from her house? Correct. Okay. And you guys didn't discuss anything while you were there? [00:54:09] Keanu Davis: No. [00:54:10] Speaker 4: You didn't tell her that he had a lacerated liver? [00:54:16] Keanu Davis: I don't recall, no. Okay. [00:54:18] Speaker 4: You don't recall? Well, you just said that you didn't talk to her at all and I'm saying you just don't recall that you made that sick. [00:54:24] Keanu Davis: I just said I don't recall telling her that my child's liver was lacerated. I obviously had a conversation with her because I was at her place. [00:54:34] Speaker 4: And you told her that you Googled it? [00:54:37] Keanu Davis: I don't recall telling her that. [00:54:40] Speaker 4: You don't recall telling her that it could be because he jumped off the couch? [00:54:44] Keanu Davis: No, I don't recall telling her anything, but if I did then I would probably have said what I researched. [00:54:53] Speaker 4: And you never blamed Keon? [00:54:58] Keanu Davis: No. [00:54:59] Speaker 4: Well, Ms. Shirley, did you keep in contact with Ms. Shirley after Carter's death? Not. [00:55:07] Keanu Davis: No, not really. Other than her checking on me, no. [00:55:14] Speaker 4: So you, I mean you guys had a discussion though, right? She would check on you, would she just say are you okay and then hang up the phone or would you guys actually exchange words? I don't recall. You don't recall anything? Six years ago. I don't recall. It was six years ago. But she just testified that that's what happened. [00:55:31] Keanu Davis: That is what she testified to. That's not my recognition of the conversation. [00:55:36] Speaker 4: She spent a lot of time with your child, didn't she? [00:55:38] Keanu Davis: She watched my child. [00:55:39] Speaker 4: Pretty much all day in Muscadine wasn't at work, right? Right. Right. She loved your child, didn't she? Sure. And she made, what was it, a pillow with his picture on it? She did. And at his viewing, he had some kind of vehicle in his hands, didn't he? He did. And that was her vehicle in his shirt, right? I'm not sure. [00:56:02] Keanu Davis: You're not sure? [00:56:03] Speaker 4: And you didn't give it back to her? [00:56:05] Keanu Davis: Why would I? She left it in his basket, obviously. [00:56:09] Speaker 4: But you guys have never discussed anything after this? About? [00:56:16] Keanu Davis: About Carter? [00:56:17] Speaker 4: No, I did not. [00:56:18] Keanu Davis: Okay. [00:56:19] Speaker 4: So you never told her that he fell off and hit his head on the bed? No. So everybody's lying? [00:56:29] Keanu Davis: Yeah. Except you. Why would I have to lie? [00:56:32] Speaker 4: Well, why would the primary pediatrics be to lie? [00:56:35] Keanu Davis: What did they lie? [00:56:36] Speaker 4: About the statements that were made on the phone. With you and Keon. The people that you loved, that we saw on the body cam. How broken up you were for them. About what happened to this boy because he was regular. And they knew him so well. And the moment you went into the office, they knew you. Right? So why would they make up these statements that are made on the phone? [00:57:01] Keanu Davis: They only said that I told him to, or that he said, don't worry about it, just get here. Yeah. [00:57:10] Speaker 4: And what were you doing? [00:57:11] Keanu Davis: Driving. [00:57:12] Speaker 4: You were driving? Correct. Okay. And where were you coming from? Milledgeville, Georgia. What age kids did you work with? I think it sounds like maybe they were college students. They were high school students. High school students. But you don't really know anything about the statements on the phone. [00:57:43] Keanu Davis: I was driving. They just told me my child was getting rushed to the emergency room. I'm driving. I have an hour drive. I'm also trying to contact his father to notify him of what's going on. There's a lot going on while I'm trying to drive on the highway. So what is Keon referring to when he says don't worry about that, just get here? I have no idea. I'm sure I was trying to find out information about my child. [00:58:08] Speaker 4: Did you talk about this afterwards with Kadeem? Talk about what? Talk about anything? [00:58:20] Keanu Davis: I have had multiple conversations with his father. [00:58:24] Speaker 4: And was there any conversation about the lacerated liver and him and Keon? Have you ever found out about something? [00:58:31] Keanu Davis: Every time that I would try to contact my child's father about the case or anything involving the case, he did not want to talk about it, which I can understand that he didn't want to have more conversation about the death of his child. [00:58:46] Speaker 4: Well, I don't think that's what I'm referring to. Because didn't he testify that he told you that he didn't know what he would do when he found out if he was Keon? Didn't he testify to that? [00:58:56] Keanu Davis: That's what he said out of his mouth. I mean, that's his personal, emotional. [00:59:00] Speaker 4: So he's lying too, or what? [00:59:02] Keanu Davis: He's lying about what? That's his personal, emotional feelings. He doesn't know what he would do if something. If he found out someone else did something to his child that has nothing to do with it. [00:59:11] Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm referring specifically to the statement of that that he made to me. He said that, right? He did say that. And what was your response? I don't know. Well, according to his testimony, you defended him. Right? You defended Keon. [00:59:27] Keanu Davis: All I said was I did not get mad at Keon. All I said was I do not believe that Keon would ever harm my child. [00:59:42] Speaker 4: And so we know that Carter had his own bedroom in your apartment, correct? Correct. Okay. And that there was kind of this battle between keeping him in his own bedroom? Not a battle. [00:59:54] Keanu Davis: He was sleep trained. He was sleep trained? Yes, so I was training him to sleep in his own bed. [01:00:01] Speaker 4: But he would come and knock on your door and try to find you? [01:00:06] Keanu Davis: Obviously, he would get up in the middle of the night and try to come back and sleep in my bed, yes. Okay. [01:00:12] Speaker 4: He would. What about if you and Keon were in the bedroom with the door closed? [01:00:16] Keanu Davis: We wouldn't be in the bedroom with the door closed. What about where would you guys smoke marijuana? We did not smoke marijuana in my house. He would smoke outside in the or on the patio. [01:00:29] Speaker 4: He would smoke outside on the patio? On the patio. So you never had anything to do with any of that? [01:00:34] Keanu Davis: I never had anything to do with any of that. Did you try to get a new phone after this? Did I try to get a new phone? Mhm. As in a phone number? A new phone? Like upgrade your phone? I believe I did upgrade my phone only because me and his father shared a phone at the time or a line and I was returning his and I was eligible for an upgrade so I believe that I could upgrade or whatever. When did you become eligible for an upgrade? I don't know. [01:01:21] Speaker 4: Does December 6, 2020 sound right? I don't know. [01:01:25] Keanu Davis: Okay. [01:01:26] Speaker 4: Do you know how many times you check to see if you actually qualify for an upgrade? [01:01:31] Keanu Davis: I would never change to see if I qualify for a upgrade. I don't know. [01:01:44] Speaker 4: I got it. I got it. [01:01:46] Speaker ?: I got it. I got it. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. There's a lot of stuff. I need to see if I can. I need to see if I can. This is Stacy. This is Stacy. All right. Can we move through this format? Sure. Can we move through this format? Sure. Can we move through this format? Sure. [01:02:32] Speaker 4: Can we move through this format? Sure. Okay. [01:02:44] Speaker ?: Thank you. [01:03:14] Speaker 4: Do you have any idea what that is? [01:03:33] Keanu Davis: Those are records of an eligibility check from, I guess, my account. [01:03:39] Speaker 4: From your account? And there were a lot of checks, weren't there? They are. Okay. [01:03:44] Keanu Davis: What were the dates? From November until, I believe it was January, I don't know. Until December? December, January. [01:03:53] Speaker ?: I didn't necessarily do the last date. That's quite a few pages, isn't it? [01:03:59] Keanu Davis: Eligibility requests for upgrade online so long. Mm-hmm. For work. [01:04:04] Speaker 4: Okay. A lot of them came right after this incident happened, didn't it? [01:04:11] Keanu Davis: Sure. But, I mean, I work in tech, so me upgrading my phone had no bearing on anything, because everything would then be transferred over to my new phone. Why did you tell Keon to give him a breathing treatment that morning? Because Keon had mentioned that he didn't think that he was breathing correctly, so I immediately said, well, I asked him to lift up his shirt so that I could see if he was retracting a little bit. I did not notice him retracting, but because he stated that he thought that he was breathing correctly, I told him to give him a breathing treatment anyway. [01:04:48] Speaker 4: And you knew the signs and symptoms, right? That's right. [01:04:51] Keanu Davis: Yes, which is why I asked him to lift up his shirt. [01:04:53] Speaker 4: And you cried and you didn't see anything? No. But you said he didn't bring the treatment anyway. Correct. You didn't recall saying that car threw out four times Sunday night to Collins in your first interview? [01:05:19] Keanu Davis: I don't recall anything from that first interview again. I had just lost my child. It was a lot going on. [01:05:36] Speaker 4: How many times did he tell you his stomach hurt? [01:05:38] Keanu Davis: I don't know. Was it once? He told me Sunday night. I went to work on Monday. I never heard him say it again until I returned home and he grew up in my face and then he said mommy my stomach hurts. [01:05:53] Speaker 4: Did you give him a bath after that happened or did you give him the bath prior to being in the kitchen? [01:05:59] Keanu Davis: I gave him a bath when I got home because I noticed that he had juice all on his shirt. [01:06:06] Speaker 4: But it wasn't juice, was it? It was juice. It was juice? It was juice. What was on the carpet? Juice. Juice was on the carpet? Juice. Juice. Okay. But you said that you kind of deduced that it was throw up at some point in your state as the law enforcement, right? [01:06:24] Keanu Davis: Throw up in my mind is throw up, which it should contain food, some sort of consistency, chunkiness, something. This was not that. This was, looked like water mixed with juice. [01:06:37] Speaker 4: So why did you tell law enforcement that you kind of figured out later once he threw up in the kitchen that he figured out it was throw up? [01:06:53] Keanu Davis: I said because when he threw up with me in the kitchen he also vomited the juice and the clear fluid. So I then immediately said that must have what I, that must have been what I noticed on the floor from when I came home from work. [01:07:08] Speaker 4: And you said that there was something I would tell you to law enforcement once they told you about the injuries, right? Of course. So there's nothing? I did not witness any type of anything. [01:07:32] Keanu Davis: No. And there was no evidence of any bruising or anything on his body to me, nor was it any evidence of any bruising on his body to the medical staff who saw him that Tuesday morning. [01:07:46] Speaker 4: But Carter didn't run to you and point at Keon and say he hit me. [01:07:55] Keanu Davis: No. No. He never did that, right? He never said anyone hit him, but I'm a, if anyone didn't hit him, he would point to whoever. I would ask who did it as I would refer to my child and he would point and tell me who he thought would do anything. Right, like if he got hit at daycare or something like that? If he got hit at daycare, I wouldn't have known unless Mr. Ark told me. [01:08:20] Speaker 4: But you said if anything would happen, Carter, who was a crybaby in your words, would come to you. [01:08:27] Keanu Davis: What happened? Carter is always the last one to be picked up from daycare because I am the latest parent to pick him up. So whenever I pick him up from daycare, he is typically the only child there. So there will be no one to point to. [01:08:40] Speaker 4: Okay, then why did you tell police that? What happened? Why did you tell police that if someone hit Carter that he would tell you? Because he would. [01:08:49] Keanu Davis: But he didn't do that with Keon. So that obviously means no one hit him. [01:08:55] Speaker 1: Not an appropriate check. Thank you. I have nothing else to call her. Step it down, ma'am. [01:09:03] Speaker 2: Amen.
