When police were called to an apartment complex, they thought they were responding to a battery call.
Instead, they found a 10-year-old girl, brutally killed.
She was killed hours before her 10th birthday party.
Police found her body in a bathtub. It had been partially rolled in a blanket and set on fire.
Her arms were missing, and one leg was nearly cut off.
The girl’s mother, 35-year-old Michelle Martens; her boyfriend and his cousin, Jessica Kelley, have been charged in connection to her death.
“This homicide is the most gruesome act of evil I have ever seen in my career,” Albuquerque Police Chief Gorden Eden, Jr. said in a statement. “A complete disregard of human life and betrayal by a mother.”
Police said the girl had been drugged with methamphetamine, sexually assaulted and stabbed. They also found bruising around her neck, indicating she was possibly strangled, according to the criminal complaint.
The suspects drugged the girl “to try to calm her down” so they could do what they want to her, Officer Tanner Tixier, spokesman for the Albuquerque Police Department, told reporters.
In an interview with police, Martens described how she watched her boyfriend, whom she met about a month earlier on PlentyOfFish.com, and his cousin, kill and dismember her daughter.
She said her boyfriend and his cousin drugged the child with methamphetamine to calm her down, the complaint says.
The boyfriend then had sex with the girl, while his cousin covered her mouth.
Martens said her boyfriend choked the girl afterward, killing her, according to the complaint. The boyfriend's cousin then stabbed the girl in her torso and held out the child’s arms, while her cousin cut them off.
Kelley, who, had just been released from prison a few days earlier, put the child’s body in the bathtub and threw her arms in plastic bag.
Police found the arms in a white plastic bag in the living room near the kitchen.
