Exorcism Ruled Out in Death of 6-Year-Old Girl
From Times Wire Reports
Atlanta police ruled out exorcism in the death of a young girl whose beaten body was found covered in pages from a Bible.
A police spokesman, Sgt. John Quigley, said nothing in the death of Quimani Carey, 6, was linked “to how an exorcism is done in Catholicism or in any religion as we know it.”
Christopher Carey, 29, and Valerie Carey, 27, who are believed to be the girl’s parents, have been charged with murder.
Statements from the Careys indicated they had been “undemonizing the child” in some way, Quigley said.
