5 year old found dead

SANFORD, N.C. – 5 year old found dead, For a week, authorities feverishly searched for a 5-year-old girl across central North Carolina, only to find her body Monday off a rural road following accusations the girl’s mother offered her for sex.

The investigation into the disappearance of Shaniya Davis yielded the arrest of her mother and two other men, though one man was later released. Searchers found Shaniya dumped into the woods 30 miles from her hometown in Fayetteville. Hundreds of volunteers hoping to find her alive left the site of the search dejected, unable to bring Shaniya home to an emotional father, her 7-year-old brother and the dolls she loved to play with.

ccording to a new report by the Associated Press issued earlier on November 16 authorities searched for the girl’s body that they at first thought might be found alive.

Shaniya Davis had been missing since Tuesday, November 10, and the most recent search took place earlier on November 16, according to Fayetteville, North Carolina police.

Another person who has been charged with kidnapping in this case is Mario Andrette McNeil, 29, who was seen carrying Shaniya in a hotel’s surveillance camera.

Police have not stated whether or not Davis and McNeil know each other, and said that Davis doesn’t yet have an attorney.

Syd Severe of Raleigh was one of the many volunteers who helped in the search for Shaniya. He told reporters that he didn’t believe in the death penalty, but those responsible for Shaniya’s death deserved it.

Shaniya’s father, Bradley Lockhart, had raised the little girl for several years but decided last month to allow her to go live with her mother.
