The horrific incident took place in an apartment in the city of Wickliffe, about 17 miles outside Cleveland. As per reports, the girl's mother was babysitting the infant, Zuri Whitehead and after the mother fell asleep on the couch, the girl took the baby upstairs. However, she came back about 45 minutes later, woke the mother up and mumbled that something was wrong with the baby.
When the baby was taken to a hospital, she died during surgery and, it is revealed that the baby had massive injuries to her brain, liver, spleen and kidney.
The girl who committed the murder is being held at the Lake County Juvenile Detention Center and the police are trying to piece together the events that led to the sordid murder. She was taken to a juvenile court and the judge has ordered her to undergo a mental competency exam before her next appearance.
Obviously, questions would be asked about whether the actions of the girl were results of watching violence in movies or video games or some such other outlets and the influence of the social media on young corruptible minds. It is not a big deal in America or elsewhere to see school students commit crimes like murders. It is a wakeup call for society as a whole.
