SPOTSYLVANIA COURTHOUSE, Va. (AP) - The parents of a 4-month-old girl found dead in a Virginia motel room have been charged with child abuse. The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star reports 31-year-olds Cherie Danielle Sullivan and James Edward Cressel were arrested this week following the Friday discovery of their daughter. Court records say the girl's parents gave "vague, differing stories" about how their daughter was found dead. Records say the girl had visible bruises on her forehead, and the parents' timeline of events doesn't match with the girl's potential time of death. Records also say Sullivan told authorities she and her husband are addicted to opiates and the baby tested positive for opiates at birth. It's unclear if Sullivan or Cressel have a lawyer to contact for comment.


Just charged with child abuse? Kind of seems like murder since the child is dead and not just banged up.

Seems like murder charges should be brought.

This is what I don't like about the interwebs..

The regular news outlets would not pick up on this story, and it would probably be kept to a local news thing...

It's sad these piece of shits abused their child till it died, but why do I need to know about what these assholes did in bum frick Spotsylvania Courthouse, Virginia...

The news is bad enough here in Louisiana...

Why were they still allowed to have custody of the baby?
