Video of the incident was posted on Twitter with the caption “I’m crying.” And when the boy’s godmother saw it, she alerted his mother and responded online.

“My godson comes from a loving home & whether he’s gay or not we love him regardless,” she tweeted as she clarified that the person abusing the boy was not his mother.

“We always let him be himself. His mom thought she could trust this person to watch them for 10mins & this happened,” she said.

She said police had been notified and that the perpetrator will be turning themselves in. The tweets also include a video of the boy and his mother who addresses the controversy and thanks the internet for supporting her child in his time of need.

“Everybody thinks it’s me and everybody was saying all these negative things about me. You know, I’m not worried about none of that. My son is fine, I know he’s good over here. I know he’s being loved right,” his mom says in the video.

She says the babysitter was the boy’s aunt and she “cannot speak for her actions.” She said the incident was “being handled” by the police.
