Tragedy as police launch frantic search for missing girl, one, before she is found dead hours later under LAUNDRY in chaotic home
By NINA GOLGOWSKI
A search for a missing 17-month-old girl ended tragically Saturday morning after her body was recovered beneath a toppled pile of laundry inside her grandmother's closet.
The family of little Zyia Turner are calling her death an accident after cadaver dogs unearthed her body hours after an Amber Alert was issued throughout their Detroit community on Friday afternoon.
'We were hoping, just hoping someone had took her,' Ziya’s grandmother Bridget Elam told WXYZ behind tears.
...
While police said the family had been fully cooperating in the investigation the girl's uncle has been placed under arrest.

Strange parallels.
No reason to issue Amber alert, since there was no evidence of abduction nor description of offender or vehicle.
Girl had hair beads.
Chaotic family arrangements.
Cadaver dogs alerted in the home (despite being notoriously unreliable, C-R)
But strangely (!!) the family DID search.
So no significant parallels really then.
