In the newly-released autopsy report, the medical examiner said the boy's cause of death was blunt force trauma, and his manner of death was homicide. The report detailed numerous lacerations, abrasions, and contusions all over the boy's body, in addition to significant internal injuries.
The autopsy found that the wounds showed variable stages of healing, indicating they were inflicted in multiple events or over a period of time.
The ex-boyfriend of the child's mother, Brycson Malik Gaddis, was arrested and charged with murder and assault on a child causing death. He's accused of killing Elyjah in July and disposing of his body in the dumpster.
Gaddis pleaded not guilty. If convicted as charged, he faces a maximum sentence of 25-years to life in state prison. He is not Elyjah's biological father, police said.
