3-year-old girl raped, beaten to death by new step-dad

A wicked step-father has raped and beaten a 3-year-old girl to death.

Pascal Kaufmann, a German national, has been arrested for raping and beating his 3-year-old step-daughter, Charlie Brame, to death, in what has been described as the most brutal crime against a child.

Charlie whose mother had separated from her real father, was left in the care of Kaufmann who only moved in with the mother barely a week earlier, was brutally raped, beaten and neglected by her step-father before she died in a hospital, the Florida police said.

Her father had reportedly begged her mother not to leave the girl alone with Kaufmann, who legally joined the family through marriage about a week ago.

The New York News Daily reports that the girl had signs of recent sexual and 'aggravated child abuse with severe brain trauma.'

"Kaufmann, 19, was behind Brame's injuries and was charged with child neglect and rape.

Kaufmann moved to the United States from Germany in August and wed Brame's mother about a week ago.

On Saturday, he babysat Brame while her mother was at work, according to his arrest report."

Kaufmann told police the girl was hurt falling off a bed. When she didn't move, he borrowed a neighbor's cell phone and called his wife.

The alleged child rapist was 'calm' in those moments and declined offers to help.

When paramedics arrived at the Orlando home, they found the girl struggling to breathe, with bruises covering her back and head, police said.

The police continued:

"It was unlikely that Brame could receive such severe head trauma from falling out of the bed.

Her injuries were more consistent with blunt trauma to the back of the skull."
