After this incident, Wilson told police Stevens continued “acting up” and threw himself on the ground saying he was leaving, per CBS News, and so she proceeded to sit on the boy right there on the lawn as she reached out to his case worker.
One video seen by investigators allegedly saw Wilson already sitting on the “neck/head area” of the boy. Another longer video, 6:48 in duration, saw Wilson laying near the boy’s buttocks. He did not move through the entirety of this video, according to authorities.
