Still at a loss of words. Got news Friday afternoon my 16 month old niece passed away Yayra Estelle Rutherford. Rest in God’s loving arms baby girl.
The mother, who had been homeless since June, was interviewed by detectives and did not know how her daughter died. She reported the girl was being fussy and gave her a small amount of Benadryl. The family has been homeless since June and the mother is fearful about asking for help due to fear of her children being taken away.
