Missing Teen Found Dead After Being Beaten With An Electric Cord And Put Inside A Tote Bag And Now Her Great-Aunts Are Being Charged

Delia knew this pink tote would be able to be connected to Delia’s death and her, as well as her sister, so she destroyed it and the evidence it contained.

Delia maintained that she had no idea what happened to Delia’s body though before admitting she told her mom what had happened.

Authorities then spoke to Delia’s mom, who said Marian confessed that she and her sister beat Delia “unmercifully” before washing her “due to her injuries.”

On May 27th, the Alachua County Sheriff’s Office announced that they had arrested Marian and Valerie. They charged both of the sisters with Manslaughter, Deprivation of Medical Care, and Tampering with/Destroying Evidence.

Valerie was also charged with Aggravated Child Abuse, while Marian was charged with Child Neglect.
