In this week's Florida Man Friday true crime story, Ky delves into the case of a toddler's death under suspicious circumstances. On March 5, 2024, police responded to a call about an unresponsive child in Lakeland, Florida. They found 23-month-old Ezekiel Cotto St. Fleur lying on the bathroom floor, not breathing. Despite being transported to two hospitals, Ezekiel died from his injuries on March 8.

Ky explores the disturbing details as the investigation unfolds. The mother's boyfriend, 20-year-old Bobby Frank Curry Jr., claimed that Ezekiel was injured by puppies jumping on him, causing him to fall and hit his head. However, inconsistencies in his account and the severity of Ezekiel's injuries led medical professionals to suspect physical abuse. Bobby's decision to delay calling 911 for over two hours, instead messaging the child's mother on Instagram, raises more questions about his actions and intentions.

As Ky discusses the case, she highlights the importance of caution when introducing new people into a child's life.
