According to the arrest form, Roselva allegedly tried to kill her son with a bat while he slept inside their Lauderhill home because she could no longer take care of him and did not want to see him suffer.

He suffered injuries to his head and his back, according to the arrest report.

The child was able to escape to a neighbor's home to call police.

He suffered injuries to the head and back.

If Roselva is able to post bond, she will have to stay away from her son and wear an ankle monitoring bracelet.

It is not yet known where her son will be staying.
