@tndtok: A missing 10-year-old year girl from Pennsylvania was found dead in New Jersey, and her foster parent was arrested in connection to her death, according to authorities. The body of Malayshia Alford was discovered in a car in Lindenwold, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office announced during a news conference on Thursday. "It was immediately apparent that she had been there for a while," Assistant District Attorney Ashley Toczylowski said at a news conference. Toczylowski said a medical examiner determined the girl's initial cause of death was blunt force trauma and the manner of death is homicide. Authorities described her death as a "brutal murder," WPIV reported. The child's foster mother, Caprice Williams, was arrested on multiple charges, including murder, endangering the welfare of a child, criminal use of a communication facility, possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person, tampering with evidence, abuse of corpse.
