Mother, boyfriend charged after killing her 2-year-old child in Indiana

A woman and her boyfriend have been charged in the death of the woman's 2-year-old daughter, whose body was found in a rural area of central Indiana, prosecutors said Wednesday.

Madison Marshall, 22, and Roan Waters, 25, were charged for their alleged roles in the death and disappearance of Marshall’s daughter, Oaklee Snow, said Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears.

It's alleged that "Oaklee suffered a horrific death and an abandonment that diminished the dignity that any child deserves," Mears said in a statement.

Waters was charged with murder, battery, neglect of a dependent resulting in death and several other counts. Marshall was also charged with numerous counts, including neglect of a dependent resulting in death and assisting a criminal.

In January, Oaklee’s biological father told authorities that Marshall and Waters took Oaklee and his younger son from his Cromwell, Oklahoma, home, without authorization and were allegedly headed to Indianapolis, according to court records.
