Molly Roe raped and threw her boyfriend's 17 month old daughter Maleeya against a blunt object. Maleeya was rushed to hospital with a severe brain injury and died several hours after being admitted. A medical examination of Maleeya after she was hospitalized revealed bruising to her vaginal area, right hip and left side of her stomach, as well as a bite mark on her back.

Suspect in death: Molly Roe, Father's girlfriend

 

Maleeya’s distraught father made the sad announcement about his daughter's death on his Facebook page after a friend asked why he changed his relationship status from 'in a relationship' to 'single'.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Roe had initially been charged with child abuse after Maleeya was brought alive to the hospital. But following her death the charges were upgraded to first degree murder and aggravated rape. Roe pleaded guilty to first degree murder and was sentenced to life with parole, which means the 25 year old must serve at least 51 years until she is eligible for parole.
