Szymon Brzozowski, a 24-year-old stepfather killed his two-year-old girl by throwing her into a door after getting frustrated because he lost a computer game.
According to Metro UK, Szymon Brzozowski was playing a computer game when he allegedly got angry, grabbed his stepdaughter Lilka and threw her at the door’s metal frame.
Although the girl did not lose consciousness, she subsequently refused to eat or drink anything.
Two days later her mother Angelika, 24, took her to hospital but did not tell doctors what had happened.
Three days later, during an operation, Lilka, who lived in the village of Pila in Poland with her family, died.
Prosecutors say the girl had been suffering from ‘cranio-cerebral injuries’ to her skull and brain.
She had previously been treated for injuries, suspected to have been caused by domestic violence but Angelika told social workers that the child was clumsy and walked into things.
Angelika finally admitted to police that Brzozowski had ‘thrown the girl at the door frame in frustration at losing at a computer game’.
Brzozowski has told investigators that his method of punishing a child was to make them stand in a corner or lock them in the bathroom.
He has been charged with child abuse that led to the death of a child, as well as mentally abusing his wife and her other two children.
It is not clear whether a plea has been entered but he faces a sentence of up to 12 years if found guilty.
Angelika meanwhile has been charged with failing to provide medical help.
