DANVILLE, ILL. (WAND) - 29-year-old Dantrail Johnson, previously charged with aggravated battery of a child and bodily harm, has now been charged with murder. A Vermilion County court record showed that Johnson has now been charged with murder and intent to kill.

These charges are in connection to the death of two-year-old Cali Marie, a Danville toddler. Johnson was originally charged with aggravated battery of a child, but was released on bond.

The toddler's grandmother, Danielle Madlock, spoke to WAND News last month. During the interview, she called on officials to charge Johnson.
