Police have arrested a suspect in the death of an 8-year-old girl whose body was found last March inside a central California home after the child was reported missing
This undated photo provided by the Merced Police Department shows suspect Dhante Jackson, of Merced, Calif. Police have arrested Jackson, a suspect in the death of an 8-year-old girl whose body was found last March inside a central California home after the child was reported missing, authorities said. After a months-long manhunt, Dhante Jackson was taken into custody Saturday, Sept.
Jackson was in a relationship with the young victim's mother, 30-year-old Samantha Johnson, who was arrested in March and has pleaded not guilty to murder and child abuse, prosecutors said. The missing person report led Hayward police to arrest Johnson on a warrant stemming from a case of child abuse in Alameda County last year, police said.
Johnson told a Merced police detective that Jackson, her boyfriend, had kept Sophia in a shed and that the child was subjected to physical and sexual abuse by Jackson.
