A West End man was indicted by a Hamilton County grand jury Monday on charges that he shook his 4-month-old daughter so hard on Dec. 26 that she later died.

Aleph Phelps, 25, was charged with murder and felonious assault, accused of killing Kayla Stallworth.

Investigators say Phelps told police he was trying to stop the child from choking. If convicted, Phelps faces up to life in prison.

Phelps served a four-month prison sentence in 2002 after violating probation on a 2001 domestic violence charge relating to a woman who has the same last name as Kayla.

Internet pals accused of sex with minors

Jeffrey Fleek, 36, of Taylor Mill, Ky., was indicted on four charges of unlawful sex with a minor and two charges of pandering obscenity involving a minor.

The pandering charges relate to the men's role in producing obscene videos involving the girls, according to the prosecutor's office.

Each man faces more than 20 years in prison if convicted.
