RB Cierre Wood played in the NFL for a brief time from 2013-2015 as the teams he journeyed with are the Texans, Patriots, Ravens, Seahawks, and Bills. Since then, he’s gotten into some serious legal troubles.
He and his girlfriend Amy Taylor have now been indicted on murder and 20 felony child abuse charges, according to USA TODAY Sports. Both supposedly killed Taylor’s five-year-old daughter on April 9 of this year. Two weeks prior to the incident, Taylor and her daughter moved in with Wood. A judge ruled that the daughter was suffering before being killed.
The judge also revealed photos of bruises on the girl on her abdomen, back, arms, and legs. The autopsy added that she had 20 broken ribs, internal bleeding, lacerated liver, bruises to her heart, diaphragm and connective tissue. It’s devastating that a child so young went through this torture. Hopefully Wood and Taylor are locked up for life.
