Input: The father of an infant boy who drowned in the bathtub Sunday night in east Jefferson County has been charged in his son's death. 
  
 Cordarius Cotton, 23, left 5-month-old Dezmend Cotton in the tub for more than an hour while the father played a video game, said Chief Deputy Randy Christian. Cotton is now charged with reckless manslaughter. 
  
 Center Point Fire and Rescue and Jefferson County Sheriff's deputies responded to the Jefferson County Housing Authority complex at 8:19 p.m., said Center Point Fire Chief Donnie West. When medics arrived on the scene, Dezmend was being carried from the apartment. 
  
 A dispatcher had been providing CPR instruction while first responders were en route and paramedics took over and continued to try to revive the baby while en route to Children's of Alabama. 
  
 Christian said the boy was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital. Early information from the scene, he said, was that the father of the child placed him in the bathtub and left the room. When he returned, he found the child unresponsive. 
  
 Christian on Tuesday said Cotton was questioned by detectives and told them he turned the water on and put the boy in the tub. He then left the room to go play a video game and forgot about the child. When he returned to the bathtub about an hour later, he found Dezmend unresponsive. 
  
 Dezmend's mother was not home at the time. Two other children live in the home, but only one was there at the time. The children were placed in the care of a grandmother pending a DHR investigation. 
  
 Sheriff's investigators reviewed the case with Jefferson County District Attorney's Office on Monday and obtained the felony warrant against Cotton. He remains in the county jail. 
  
 Family members have declined to comment on Dezmend's death. 
  
 "We all have not only a moral obligation, but also a legal obligation to give proper care to a child whose life and well-being depends on a caregivers attention and actions,'' Christian said. "This was a heart-wrenching case for all involved including our personnel. God Bless this family and this little boy."

 An Alabama man has been charged with reckless manslaughter after a drowning death of his five-month-old son at a home in Birmingham on Sunday. 
  
 Cordarius Cotton, 23, allegedly placed the infant in a bathtub and left the room, according to a press release published Tuesday. Cotton told police he turned on the water, left to play a video game and forgot about the baby for an hour. 
  
 When Cotton returned, he found that the child was unresponsive, he told police, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office. 
  
 Medics transported the boy to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police say. 
  
 The child's mother was not home at the time of the incident, AL.com reports. Other children who live at the home were placed in the care of a grandmother, the site says. 
  
 "This was a heart-wrenching case for all involved including our personnel. God Bless this family and this little boy," Jefferson County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Randy Christian said.
