Although the girl disappeared 5 years ago, she was never reported missing and no one noticed. Nice! I'd notice if any family nieces and nephews were missing. I look forward to seeing them.

A Cleveland mother is in police custody for throwing her baby out with the bath water—almost literally. India Parker, 35, is being held on $10,000 bond after reportedly admitting that she tossed her daughter’s dead body out with the trash in 2006. The child, who was five at the time, allegedly died when a bookcase fell on her. Parker faces a charge of abuse of a corpse.
The woman’s confession on Christmas Eve clarifies some of the sketchier details of a missing persons report filed last Monday by the father of one of Parker’s other children. The man told police that Parker’s 10-year-old daughter, Kaliyah, had recently vanished. But when police interviewed relatives and friends, they were told that Kaliyah had not been seen by any of them in the last five years.
Another vexing question is why Parker disposed of the child’s body as she claims to have done. One possible explanation is that she may have feared being declared an unfit mother to her remaining children. The Mail Online reports that the woman has a history of child endangerment that resulted in one of her children being removed from the home by social workers, then subsequently returned.
In the meantime, the investigation has been turned over to the Cleveland Police Homicide Unit.

That makes sense. To avoid being declared an unfit mother, throw your dead child in the garbage.

If a bookcase fell on the child, why was the mother tossing bathwater with that body?

Ah, the logic of a child killer! She had one child taken already so when this one supposedly died accidentally, she threw her away. Got it! No. Not really.

Arent people close, arent families close to eachother anymore. Nobody no cousins or uncles or aunts cared about that lady and her kids. Just " nope havent seen that kid in years". Just very sad and thats all

So is my neighbor going to jail for shoving a deer onto his truck?

Nevermind the fact that his rifle killed the deer already, the crime is mishandling the corpse.

I smell bullshit, and a poorly-built bookcase.

You would think a family would notice a child going missing, but, some people don't want to get involved even with family. Very sad! I see my nieces and nephews often. My aunts and uncles weren't the best role models and I don't want to be one of those aunts. I like seeing my eleven month old great nephew growing every week. It's amazing how quickly they grown and learn things. I'd kill or die for my nieces and nephews since they're like my surrogate children. I don't have my own children.
