Documents state that Tamisha Lashay Taylor was charged with injury to a child and retaliation.

Taylor is accused of hitting her 9-year-old son with her hand on Nov. 29, 2023, after CPS told Taylor that her son told them she allegedly abused him, documents allege.

It reportedly happened after Taylor told the child," If you all talk to CPS, then I am going to have to hit you."
