Someone hit 2-year-old Daytona Robertson hard enough to cause severe swelling of her brain, an autopsy report says.

Daytona, whose stepmother is charged with killing her, would have turned 3 today.

She died Feb. 27 after suffering "blunt force trauma of the head," said the report, filed in Sedgwick County District Court.

The autopsy also found head injuries "suggesting a component of shaking."

Citing other reports, the autopsy report gave a timeline: Daytona had been with her stepmother, Katie Robertson, on Feb. 22 when she "became lethargic and lost interest in eating. Later the stepmother noticed seizure-like activity and contacted 911." Daytona "was reported to be fine" earlier that day, the autopsy report said.

Two men who were arrested in the death of Wichita businessman James Collins this week were charged Thursday with first-degree murder.

District Judge Eric Yost set bond for Shannon Bogguess, 24, and Kedrin Littlejohn, 18, at $250,000 each, and ordered them to return to court for a preliminary hearing May 29.

The men also were charged with one count each of aggravated robbery, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated assault. An additional charge of criminal possession of a firearm was filed against Bogguess.

Wichita police said Collins, the 55-year-old owner of Marquee Motorcars at 2938 E. Douglas, was shot in the leg shortly before 8 a.m. Monday and then abducted from his business in a black Hummer that was being serviced there.

Police said the men drove to the 500 block of South St. Francis, where Collins managed to get out before he was shot a second time and then run over.

Terri Brooks is expected to take the stand today as the first witness against the man accused of killing her pregnant 14-year-old daughter nearly two years ago.

Ted Burnett, 51, says he's not guilty of killing Chelsea Brooks.

But prosecutors say Burnett acted as the hit man hired by Elgin Robinson, the 20-year-old father of the eighth-grade girl's unborn child.

A third man, Everett Gentry, is the key witness who told police of the plan. He pleaded guilty to murder a month after the killing. He said he drove the car to Butler County, while Burnett strangled the girl.

Gentry, 17 at the time, wasn't eligible for the death penalty as a juvenile.
