FAYETTEVILLE (WTVD) -- Fayetteville police announced Thursday night that 29-year-old Mario McNeill is charged with 5-year-old Shaniya Davis' murder.
Fayetteville Police Chief Tom Bergamine said during a press conference that officials have ruled Davis' death as a homicide.
The 5-year-old disappeared last Tuesday from her Fayetteville home. Her body was found days later in a wooded area south of Sanford in Lee County.
Preliminary reports reveal that she most likely died of asphyxiation, but testing has not yet been completed so a final autopsy report has not been released.
Police say they do not believe Davis was killed at the Sanford hotel where she was last spotted on surveillance video with McNeill -- the same morning her mother reported her missing.
McNeill is now charged with first-degree murder and first-degree rape of a child. He was already charged with kidnapping Davis. McNeill is currently being held in the Cumberland County Detention Center under no bond.
He is expected to face a judge on those charges Friday.
Shaniya's mother 25-year-old Antoinette Davis is also in jail on charges of prostituting her daughter.
I truly hope they charge this poor excuse of a mother with murder charges as well. RIP Shaniya Davis.
