A Penn Hills woman already in custody is the only person thought to be involved in Nalani Johnson’s suspected kidnapping and death over the Labor Day weekend, Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen A. Zappala Jr. said Thursday.
Nalani’s father, Paul Johnson, isn’t implicated in the case, has cooperated with authorities and is grieving the loss of his daughter, Zappala said.

The cause and manner of Nalani’s death haven’t been decided, Overman said.
“It’s clearly a homicide,” Zappala said. “As soon as the coroner is done with his work, we’ll take care of our end.”
Nalani likely died Saturday, and there’s no evidence she died of exposure, Zappala said. She was found by a Westmoreland County deputy coroner and a search dog in a wooded area just inside the Indiana County line near Blairsville about 37 miles from Penn Hills.

Johnson has cooperated with authorities, and neither Johnson or Rouse is thought to be involved in the crime, Zappala said.
“The only evidence that we have right now is that the defendant, the person who is under arrest right now for the kidnapping charges, is responsible for taking the baby and ultimately the homicide,” Zappala said.
[...]
Allegheny County police are leading the investigation with the help of state police from Westmoreland and Indiana counties and the FBI, Zappala said.

Nalani’s mother, Gladys Duarte, 20, of Penn Hills, declined to comment.

“I don’t think any effort that was undertaken after Saturday would have saved the child’s life,” Zappala said.
