Girls Found in Suitcases: Homicide by Malnutrition Ruled
18 Jul
Summary
- Two girls died from homicide by unspecified means and malnutrition.
- Their bodies were discovered inside suitcases in shallow graves.
- The children's mother faces multiple aggravated murder charges.
Two young girls, identified as 8-year-old Mila Chatman and 10-year-old Amor Wilson, were discovered deceased earlier this year. Authorities have now revealed their cause of death was homicide by unspecified means, compounded by malnutrition. Their bodies were found by a passerby in separate suitcases, one located in the South Collingwood neighborhood and another in a nearby shallow grave.
Aliyah Henderson, the mother of the two children, has been arrested and faces a series of severe charges. These include six counts of aggravated murder, four counts of murder, six counts of kidnapping, four counts of felonious assault, three counts of child endangering, one count of tampering with evidence, and two counts of gross abuse of a corpse. Henderson has entered a plea of not guilty to all charges.
