The woman accused of killing her 5-year-old daughter and hiding the girl’s body in a wooded area in central New York had done some “suspicious” internet searches that raised investigators’ eyebrows, according to a detective on the case.

Latasha Mott, 30, is charged with murder and concealing a corpse in the 2024 death of 5-year-old Nefertiti Harris. According to media reports, Mott is alleged to have beaten Nefertiti to death with a belt while the girl was in the shower on Jan. 6, 2024, in Syracuse. She then allegedly hid the girl’s remains in a field.

Mott’s boyfriend, 28-year-old Corrice Parks, is charged with allegedly helping hide the little girl’s body.
