A Philadelphia mother has been charged in the death of her 4-year-old child, despite the absence of a body, according to authorities. The investigation was initiated by the Philadelphia Police Department’s Special Victims Unit on December 30, even though the mother did not report the child as missing. Dominique Bailey, a 28-year-old woman, allegedly informed her family that the child had been struck and killed by a vehicle. However, no evidence could be found to support this claim, as reported by local news outlets.
The police statement revealed that the location of the child’s body remains unknown. Bailey was interrogated on Thursday, and the following day, investigators carried out a search at a property. During questioning, Bailey provided details about her involvement in the child’s death. As a result, she has been charged with murder, endangering the welfare of a child, abuse of a corpse, and other related offenses.
Another individual, Kevin Spencer, aged 30, has also been arrested in connection with the child’s death. Spencer faces charges of criminal conspiracy, murder, abuse of a corpse, and other related offenses. The nature of the relationship between Spencer and Bailey has not been disclosed by authorities.
The case is still ongoing, and investigators are diligently working to locate the child’s remains. The tragic incident has shocked the community, and the authorities are determined to ensure justice is served.
