Brazil's Police Arrest
Father, Stepmother of
Dead Girl
Father and stepmother of
a girl allegedly thrown
to death from window of
a six-floor apartment
were arrested, Brazilian
police said on Friday.
The girl's father
Alexandre Nardoni, 29,
and stepmother Anna
Carolina Jatoba, 24, may
face murder charges for
killing 5-year-old
Isabella de Oliveira
Nardoni, police
inspector Aldo Galeano
told Brazil's Globo TV
network.
The two will remain in
custody until
prosecutors decide
whether to bring formal
charges against them.
Isabella Nardoni was
found dead on the lawn
on March 29 below her
father's sixth-floor
apartment in Sao Paulo.
Police found a hole cut
in a safety screen on
one of the windows, and
believed Isabella was
thrown from the
apartment.
Police are still
investigating if the
girl died before or
after the fall as they
also found blood in her
room.
Alexandre Nardoni denied
the charge, claiming an
intruder had killed his
daughter.
