Reports over nearly a year faked
And after Danieal died, authorities say, company director Mickal Kamuvaka held a “forgery fest” in her office where she had employees “concoct almost a year’s worth of false progress reports.”
But authorities say Andrea Kelly, whose other children are now in foster care, is primarily responsible for her daughter’s death.
The report said she was confronted repeatedly by her own mother, uncle, friends and even two of her sons about Danieal’s deteriorating health. She would lie or put them off by saying she would seek help, or banish them from the house, authorities say.
Meanwhile, the report said, she entertained friends, attended classes and fed her other children.
“This behavior indicates that Andrea Kelly did not merely allow Danieal to die,” the report said. “She may have even wanted her disabled daughter to die.”
When an ambulance responded to a 911 call for Danieal on Aug. 4, 2006, the girl had been dead for several hours. Authorities said she was so emaciated she looked like the victim of a concentration camp.
She had been lying on the filthy mattress for so long that her body outline was imprinted on it.
