A day after a child welfare worker visited her Uptown home, Andreal Hagler walked up to her sleeping 8-year-old daughter and slipped a plastic bag over her head, according to police. Amaria Osby woke up and began screaming, "Momma stop," but Hagler continued to hold the girl down, according to police and prosecutors. Hagler, who had drank bleach, then put the bag over her own head and laid next to her daughter on the bed. [snip] Amaria was dead but Hagler was still alive, police said.

DCFS staffers removed from duties following suspicious Uptown death of 8-year-old Amaria Osby, officials say

Two state child welfare workers were removed from their duties following the suspicious death of 8-year-old Amaria Osby late last month in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood, allegedly at the hand…

”A hotline call alleged Amaria had witnessed her parents involved in a domestic violence incident [at a restaurant] in March of 2022, according to DCF.

That altercation triggered a new probe which ended tragically on May 25, when Amaria’s body was found at her Uptown neighborhood home, lying next to her mother, Andreal Hagler, who allegedly asphyxiated her, Cook County prosecutors said.

A chilling timeline described the restaurant hotline report saying law enforcement responded, made no arrest and did not press changes related to the incident.

The next day an investigator made a “good faith attempt” to visit the child victim and family without success, according to the timeline.

Two months went by without any visits at all until May 24, when an investigator visited the family and spoke with the mother and the child. There were “no noted concerns” for physical abuse or neglect, according to the timeline.

The next day Amaria was found dead.”

Note that the Tribune and Sun-Times both report that the autopsy showed “the cause of her death was multiple injuries from an assault” rather than asphyxiation. IMO the poor child must’ve been fight for her life gefore she was overpowered.
