Tomball Mom Accused of Daughter Murder

After confessing to the death of her 5-year-old daughter, a lady in Tomball, Texas has been charged with capital m*rder, according to authorities. According to court documents, the suspect, Melissa Towne, said in court on Monday that she had told officers she wanted to ki!! her daughter because she was an “evil child” and that she was someone she didn’t want to deal with any longer.

According to investigators, Towne reportedly stabbed her kid in a park and then took her to the hospital. She allegedly requested a wheelchair from a nurse while just mentioning that her baby was “hurt.” According to investigators, the nurse discovered the 5-year-old inside a mesh laundry bag covered by a blanket as she approached Towne’s car.

A GoFundMe has been created by the child’s aunt to cover her funeral expenses. “Nichole was too good for this earth,” the GoFundMe reads. “She was too special.” The child’s father was identified as James Bradshaw, Jr.
