According to CNN, unsealed police search warrants reveal that missing 10-year-old Zahra Baker, may have been raped prior to her murder. Baker had been reported missing in early October by her stepmother but the girl’s remains were found almost a month later, as she had been dismembered.
The warrants include information from a tipster to police, saying that two men were involved in the murder, and neither were Bakers father, but rather involved with the stepmother.
The tipster told police that both men had raped the girl and that she had blood on her private area and legs, according to the search warrant.
According to CNN, the tipster said the men did not admit to killing the girl but did say that they "might have hit her in the head.”
No one has currently been charged with the death of the girl.
