Summary
Sierra Shay Hadaway, 22, was charged with murder after investigators said her 2-year-old daughter Madilynn was found dead in Lanett, Alabama, on June 12.
Authorities said the child had been bound hand and foot and left face-down on a bed for more than 12 hours, and they believe she died of asphyxiation.
The Chambers County Sheriff's Office said it completed its investigation this week, leading to Hadaway's arrest; she is being held without bond at the county detention facility.
Christian Myles Sturkie, identified as a second suspect whose relationship to the girl remains unclear, died June 14 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
