Benjamin was found unresponsive on Aug. 17, 2021, as his stepmother was trying to get him to a hospital.

Later, a medical examiner ruled his death was due to starvation.

Inside the family’s home, locks were on every cabinet and the refrigerator where food was stored.

The children’s room also had locks and a gate to prevent Benjamin from getting out.

Miranda Casarez was also charged in the case earlier this year, found guilty, and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
