There are opportunist criminals and the death could have just as easily be an accident by a third party as by the parents. Someone could have tried to abduct her and killed her during, maybe not realised she was dead and taken her anyway. It could have been a robbery that went wrong and the person could have panicked and took her body to hide it? There are other feasible scenarios than the parents did it.

IDK I am very uncomfortable with the flow of this thread that the parents must have done it. Losing your child must be devastating, even if it was an accident related to them. Seems like enough punishment without speculating about their potential guilt. I can only imagine the pain.

Not that I'm saying any child should be sedated at bedtime if that is at all in the scenario of what happened. My kids only had medicine for a fever, I would never have dreamed of sedating them and that seems a terrible thing to do but again it is just speculation.

And what about justice for the child? Look if it makes you uncomfortable then you don't need to talk about it but if people don't talk about it, two criminals could walk free

I didn't say people can't talk about it. It's just that if that theory is wrong it's a lot to heap on people who lost enough already.

I guess I just find it really hard to imagine a parent going to the lengths they must have to hide the death of their child.
