The heartbreaking discovery of a small body inside a duffel bag has brought closure to the family of four-year-old Damari Carter, who went missing late last year. The remains, which were identified as Damari's, were found by a worker in the Mantua area of West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on March 18th. The worker, who was cleaning an alley, noticed a foul smell coming from a black Puma bag and upon inspection, made the grisly discovery.
According to police, Damari's mother, Dominque Bailey, and her boyfriend, Kevin Spencer, lived less than half a mile away from where the child's remains were found. Bailey had initially told her family that Damari was hit by a car and passed away at the hospital. However, her story raised suspicion and the police began investigating in January.
It was later revealed that Bailey had watched as Spencer beat her son unconscious on December 7th, which was unfortunately not the first time. After the incident, the couple went to purchase Black & Mild Cigars and returned home to find Damari unresponsive. Spencer then placed the child on a wicker chair and Bailey noticed he was cold when she kissed him goodnight several hours later.
In a moment of panic and fear, Bailey and Spencer put Damari's body in a garbage bag and disposed of it somewhere. However, they never disclosed the location to the authorities. The police conducted an extensive search, including using machinery to scour dumpsters and combing through alleys, but initially believed that Damari's body was lost in the garbage system.
Damari's aunt, Nakia Bailey, expressed relief that his remains were finally found, as the uncertainty of his whereabouts had weighed heavily on the family. She also mentioned that they are still trying to comprehend how such a tragic event could have occurred. Damari's mother has been charged with murder, abuse of a corpse, and other related crimes.
Nakia described Damari's death as devastating and still struggles to understand why her sister allowed it to happen. She tearfully questioned the loss of innocence and the fact that she will never get to see her nephew grow up. The discovery of Damari's body came just a week after another woman's body was found stuffed inside a duffel bag in her apartment by her son.
The community is left reeling from the tragic loss of both lives and continues to mourn the young boy who was taken far too soon. Damari's story serves as a reminder to cherish and protect the innocent lives around us.
