Dead girl found in bedroom

Mexican authorities suspect mother

TOLUCA, Mexico - A disabled 4-year-old girl whose disappearance last week sparked an outpouring of sympathy across Mexico was found in her own bedroom, and prosecutors said on Wednesday the girl was asphyxiated and her mother is a suspect.

The shocking discovery of the lifeless Paulette Gebara Farah under the mattress of her own bed at her wealthy parents' apartment on the outskirts of Mexico City left prosecutors struggling to explain how multiple searches could have been conducted without the body being found.
