A 25-year-old woman from Florida has been taken into custody in connection with the passing of her 5-year-old stepson, who authorities say drowned in a manmade ditch containing urine and feces. The woman, Cheyenne Star Fite, was arrested on Tuesday and charged with aggravated manslaughter by child abuse, based on court records accessed by Law&Crime.

Details from a probable cause affidavit reveal that deputies from the Osceola Sheriff’s Office responded to a call about a drowning incident at a residence on North Kenansville Road in Kissimmee around 5:30 p.m. on Oct. 11, 2024. Upon their arrival, emergency personnel found a naked and mud-covered 5-year-old boy who was unresponsive.

Paramedics transported the child to HCA Florida Osceola East Emergency where he was pronounced dead at 6:17 p.m. as a result of drowning.
