Detectives have arrested a 10-year-old in connection with the death of his 2-year-old cousin in Marion County

.Berhaun Blyden was charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child in the death of 2-year-old Journee Bly

Detectives were originally told Journee fell from her playpen. After an investigation, detectives determined the 10-year-old caused the fatal injuries, according to MCSO

Another child, who is considered a witness, told detectives the 10-year-old had physically abused her and 
Journee when the three were unsupervised
