The grandmother of an 8-year-old boy who police said was beaten to death by this mother’s ex-boyfriend told Fox 40 that the boy died protecting his sister from his mother's child-molester ex-boyfriend. Deandre Chaney Jr., 23, attacked Dante Daniels with a hammer and lighter fluid, Fox 40 reported, citing a criminal complaint. Brown told Fox 40 that the 7-year-old girl is fine, but will likely never see out of her left eye again. “Trying to save his sister from this child molester,” Monique Brown, the boy’s grandmother said. Chaney was arraigned on murder, attempted murder and charged with lewd acts with a child under 14.
