Since LE has Nancy's phone pings it seems like the window for her murdering Nalani is pretty tight, yes? Since they reported that she was already dead when placed against the tree in the park would there have been enough time for some sort of poisoning?“The remote location where authorities found the little girl was a familiar area to Nancy, according to Zappala. As a rideshare driver, she had previously been to the area, and only a few days prior to Nalani’s death.”
Nalani Johnson: Rideshare driver Sharena Nancy is the ONLY suspect in tot girl’s disappearance, death: DA
Also, is it possible that due to the amount of time between her death and LE finding her body postmortem changes could have concealed or masked some trauma (or vice versa)? I'm glad a forensic pathologist was called in. I hope a COD will be determined.
Pennsylvania doesn't require a Grand Jury indictment for felonies which is probably why Zappala has been so outspoken in sharing some details. But if he's correct that there were no signs of exposure or ligature marks then IMO it leaves a pretty short list of COD.
I've read that sometimes faint bruising can be seen around the mouth of a child who had been smothered by a hand or pillow. There are probably other possibilities but I can't think of many right now. I hope we hear something soon!
