NFL Star Jailed for Murder of Child Forced to Exercise for Being Overweight

Former NFL running back Cierre Wood has been jailed for life after pleading guilty to the murder of a 5-year-old girl who he forced to work out as a punishment for being “chunky.”

The child was found dead in Wood’s Las Vegas apartment in April 2019 with 20 broken ribs, a lacerated liver, internal bleeding, and bruises to her heart and diaphragm, according to an NBC report.

La’Rayah Davis was the daughter of Wood’s girlfriend, Amy Taylor, 31, who separately pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and child abuse charges.
